This poem was born out of the vulnerable experience of putting my work into the world. It's a journey that's been both exhilarating and terrifying, filled with the raw edges of anxiety and self-doubt. For so long, I've hidden behind a mask of shyness, protecting myself from the fear of being judged or ridiculed. But the truth is, I have so much to say—there's this uncontainable need within me to express, to share what is brewing inside.
