Silently Suffering

You do not know ...

The littlest things that set me off.

The unwanted duties trying my patience.

The anxiety-inducing pieces of our puzzle.

The reasons why I crave change.

The ways in which I desire control.

The inner turmoil that plagues me, daily.

I long to share with you everything, and yet ...

I silence myself, to avoid potential confrontation.

I silence myself, to avoid potential hurt feelings.

I silence myself, to avoid burdening you.

I silence myself, to avoid burdening others.

I find myself reaching my breaking point ...

I need help in seeking solutions, and the person that can help is you.

But you do not know ...
