burying the feelings down — deep down, only for them to rise again

I’d be lying if I said, “Today
was a good day.” It was and
it wasn’t. I can get to a
point during the day when I
feel all the emotions well
up inside me, and I leave
them in the strongest part
of my body — my heart, and I
let them marinate — simmer.
