The Need to Be Heard
I can't keep these poems in my head.
Thinking about them is making me dead.
My brain begins to bubble.
My fingers being to crumble.
I try to say those poems out loud,
But I can't even mumble.
I can't keep these poems in my head.
There's tigers, There's bears,
There's even places where I can cast my cares.
Dear poem, why do I even dare?
To show the world why I even care?
About those days,
When I smile and laugh along with you.
About those days,
Where I can run away and escape with you.
Dear poem, do you see what makes me dead?
I want you to be heard,
But you're killing me by making me keep these poems in my head.
Something wrong with this poem?
