Permission to Feel

screaming, crying,
shouting, cursing
every four letter word I know
starting with the word
hope.

I swore to hope.
one more minute,
one more day,
just enough time to
get through this phase
as they say
all this time I'm
wasting away
let me do you a favour and cut it
short.

I've contained for too long so
let me scream
let me cry
let me shout to the world the
last swear for the day, a
four letter word called
okay.

I'll be okay.

Fun Fact: Originally, there was a verse beginning with "I swore to give" but I decided to remove it. I figured that if I were to include it, I'd have to write at least a few more verses with different four letter words to make it more cohesive (Like a series), which I could but I didn't want it to be so long.
