Pause

What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?

I do not bow to joy or sorrow,
Nor let them shape my soul’s tomorrow.
I make them wait, just for a breath,
Between the walls of thought and depth.

A fleeting pause, a silent test,
To see which feelings serve me best.
And if they prove their worth with grace,
I let them rise, I give them space.
