dear counselor
I personalize other people's pain,
which is why I try to limit my exposure to the world's suffering.
But not being involved makes me feel guilty,
for not doing anything at all.
I'm stuck here in a box to scared
and too sad
to do anything about it.
But all I want to do is absolutely everything.
I feel my chest is full of love
and care for everyone else
but I dont' know how to let it out
because the anxiety tightens my chest and I can barely breathe.
Where is the first step
and who will show it to me,
and when will it come, because
I feel like my chest is going to explode some days.
