Estela De Vera Poems

Need to shout what I thought a burden
Need to rescue myself from danger
Need to negotiate with what stressed me out

I never intend to look unto the contents, until one day I opened it
I never intend to open it, until I started reading it
I never intend to read the contents, until I learned to love doing it
