I let my friend GB read my poetry journal. It was one of those moments that panicked my heart. I'm not a good poet- I write as an outlet, not because my words flow beautifully. It's also raw emotion. I only write when I'm either super happy, super sad, or super mad. So to let someone see those unfiltered aspects of my soul is scary. But luckily GB is a good friend- a friend I trust my soul with. And it was actually way more liberating than I had expected. All of a sudden there is someone who understands my emotions, because he felt them in their unadulterated form as he read those poems. And it was kind of nice.
