She bottled up all of her emotions.
Sadness and stress continued to stay in
and piled on top of each other within.
Her life was raging waves of large oceans.

Everything was stuck inside her mind
like a wild animal trapped in a cage.
The untamed beast continued to fight hard.

The wild beast constantly fought for freedom.
Finally, the beast broke free from the cage.
Her body was full of sadness and rage.
Her eyes cried tears of a rainy season.

She told herself to take slow and deep breaths,
but her mind and body wouldn’t respond.
She sat there and told herself, “Breathe, just breathe.”
