How Do I Feel Safe?

Why can't I say how I feel?
Why can't I act how I feel?
Why can't I think how I feel?
Why can't I show you how I feel?
I can't say because words can't explain
I can't act because that's all I've been doing
I can't think because thinking brings more questions
I can't show you because you are never watching when I try.
Why can't I find a place that's safe?
Why can't I find an emotion that's safe?
Why can't I find a thought that's safe?
Why can't I find a part of you that's safe?
I can't find a place because I can't get away
I can't find a safe emotion because too much of one hurts
I can't find a thought because I won't quiet my mind long enough
I can't find a safe part of you because you are always changing, yet the same.
