You've piled it for
A while now reeking in
Shame embarrassmentAs if your insides
Were swallowed by guilt of the
Past choices you've madeThe dirtiness of
Words you can't take back and the
Angry side of youYour dirty laundry
Steers others away unsure
How to reach in youTake the haunting stains
Away and mend the seams back
Together againMaking you almost
Perfect and still wearable
You're a changed personWith the right match you'll
Be able to work on those
Wrinkles and fold rightDirty laundry is
Still workable fixable
With patience and time
