But wait, not like that!


your feelings are valid, 
no matter what you feel 
you should express them, 
communicate them, 
r  e  l  e  a  s  e them
allow others to know you, 
to see inside,
behind that mask you show to the rest of the world 

but…
wait…
not like that, no
that’s not right. 
Your feelings are valid but maybe keep those ones inside?
don’t want to upset anyone now 
oh, your feelings are valid, they matter(!)
but the feelings of others 
sometimes matter more. 
That’s what we meant to say when we asked you to be honest 
your feelings are valid 
But only when they’re the feelings 
WE want to hear 
Remember, 
maybe don’t 
Let it out next time. 
our feelings are valid 
but unfortunately 
ours matter more.
