beliefs

i believe in screaming,
but not rage.

there’s something about that fury
burning up in the pit of my stomach
that scares the hell out of me.
but when i let that anger go
by howling to the sky,
to whoever is up there,
it is the most euphoric feeling in the world.

i believe in release
but not loss of control.

when that anger absorbs me,
i can’t help but feel like i’m swimming
in an ocean of cement.
movement is necessary
to breathe.
movement is necessary
to be.
