Walled in --
Toxic emotions
Where to place --
All those agonies
Emotions kill
When restrained
From the pages
We all NEED
Release exercise
Some commit
Others write
It's in methods --
Self -determination
Over pathways
We all induce --
Our own processes
You decide.
What is chosen --
It's always owned
By the ONE
Who has resolved --
Their selected mode.

**A note for the deranged and unwelcome reader(s): The phrase, "Toxic emotions," refers to the negative emotions which come from terrible life experiences, generally in the recent to current life stage.
The phrases, "Some commit," and "Others write," refers to the choices an individual has to either write about the experiences or commit horrendous acts. These phrases do not refer to an individual who does both. The term, "self-determination," refers to the individuals own personal choice over his or her own conduct. The idea of "owning" refers to the idea that the individual owns what they do with either method they choose. Again, this work indicates that the individual has chosen either one or the other pathway. The phrase, "You decide," refers to the idea that each person ultimately decides which path to take and to own for him or herself. The phrase, "Emotions kill," refers to the fact that clutching negative emotions within damages the individual who has experienced the terrible life incidents. This phrase does not indicate that the injured individual harms others. It indicates that the individual herself is harmed without release. This work additionally suggests that non-aggressive coping mechanisms, such as writing artwork, are superior as these do not, or should not, cause more pain in the owning portion of the behavior. I do hope these explainations are adequate for the deranged and emotionally disabled minds of certain reader(s).
