Whats Next Poem by Jaylen Thomas

My heart hurts
My eyes are filled with tears
My mind is filled many thoughts
My mouth is moving but nothing is coming out

I'm trying to stay what I feel
But I'm not sure how to interpret my thoughts
Its killing me, I'm trying to open my heart
But I'm not sure how to do so

I've already taken the first step
But now I'm scared
I want to go back
I wonder whats the next step

Am I ready for this
I'm trying to open up to people
But its so hard
Especially since Ive been closed up for so long

I don't think I'm ready for this
But Ive already started now
So I guess I have to finish
Because I'm definitely not quitting
