Tongue Forcefully Tied

Things you wish to say
Forbidden due to respect
Thus they are locked away
Without a release time to be set

Time and time again,
A moment calls for words,
But must be shut down
For fear of resulting swirl.

It bears a weight on your shoulders,
Leaves an impression on your chest,
And makes it seem like the world is over.
For this, there is no rest.

Even if it's too much,
You're only teary eyed
Because you locked it up
And had your tongue forcefully tied.
