SOMETIMES

Sometimes I want to say things  you never want to hear.

A hidden button throbs on me when words rise up.

And my voice wants to betray all that chaos in a roar.

It’s out of my reach,that button,

That button that when pushed

could rip your heart in pieces

~

Believe me, you wouldn’t be the only one to feel that shred.

A tongue can be as vicious as any deathly dagger.

And my voice wants to betray all that chaos in a roar.

And like my mother always said,

“This hurts me as much as it hurts you.”

The blade draws our blood to a puddle

~

I make no promises, Daddy never kept his.

Just don’t go looking for that button of mine.

Or my voice might want to betray the rising chaos in a roar.

And I won’t go looking for the foolish in you to find it

Best to step away, all of us, from that tyranny’s hunger

There is no gain for love in it

~

Sometime I want to say things you never want to hear

Sometimes I want to say things you never

Sometimes I want to say things

Sometimes I want to say

Sometimes I want

Sometimes
