To be expressive at all costs

You taught me to rip myself open
and, now I depend on it
for it keeps me alive
all this spillage is not meant to hurt anyone
it's meant to heal me
don't you believe in this process?
flushing out one's wounds?
keeping the doors and windows open?!
cleaning up the blood?
it's been hard for me to learn
but I feel I've finally absorbed the idea!
Being tired from lack of sleep lately,
I think the vegetable soup of my mind has been blended to a creamy puree!
(the swirling ingredients were so well mixed)
the liquid will pour, while the waitress is not conscious of the quality of the food
she's merely aware that it is certainly warm enough now

I guess I didn't realize all that was down there
I'll be honest
I didn't realize it!!!
I knew there was hurt and disappointment but
I took the blame on myself for being naive and I buried it
covered it over because there's so much more love in here
there's this HUGE storeroom of it!
it overwhelmed that tiny bag of hurt and anger
but I guess it was still hidden under there and it had a large influence on my decision

I didn't mean to surprise you or hurt you
but
didn't you realize that after a while it felt to me like you had no intention of ever following through?
I felt like you kept forgetting that I'm a real person too!

    That's not a puree.

    I'm thinking of cream of broccoli. :D

    Well, we're on a different track then. I was thinking of a speechless vegetable like a potato or a head of broccoli. :mrgreen:
    Something too dumb and confused to organize letters... ;)
