The Words in My Head


So many words in my head

all of them left unsaid

For reasons you already know

for you don't want to ear my words so

I keep them inside

      myself

          Growing

                 GROWing

                         GROWING

building 

unil they can no longer stand

being together all in one place

AND OUT THEY SPEW

flowig ot asblood from my finges

my mouth

my eyes

out they fly into the sky

singing freedom to the stars

dancing on your ringing ears

as all my words

escape outside

flying high

with the breeze

to whoever will

LISTEN
