These are the thoughts
That stay locked away
While I hide and stay
Inside of imaginary
Worlds of words
I’m masked over with
Schedule about to topple
Over, here I am ok
Pretending Away
That didn’t hurt
I am not battered
Nor am I bruised
Those sticks and stones
They didn’t break
My emotional bones
Instead I limp onward
Trying to forget the parts
That still sting when I sing
Of our relationship
About the Creator
Lisa Pulliam
I love making fun of my emotions, feelings, and thoughts in short form writing such as songs and illustrations. I would like to write longer and more explorative pieces for others to read.
