The pounding in my head is everywhere
Every corner every nook every cranny
Every thought I have, feelings I have, the
Words I speak hurt and hurt
It's like a hammer of a boomerang flying
Back and forth between my temples, blasting each side
before ricocheting to the other.
My sadness is everywhere in my head,
Bouncing off every wall making its way down my throat
To my heart and back up again to my throat and then to my nose
And then finally leaking out of my eyes. The thoughts I create
Try to form around the trail left from the sadness
But instead of forming around it and ignoring it, they are
Formed within it and spawn endlessly into other thoughts
That spawn endlessly into other thoughts
That spawn endlessly into other thoughts
That spawn endlessly into endless tears.
There's a long list of sad songs waiting to fill my ears and a
Stream of sad words sitting at the edge of my tongue
Pooling together until my tongue feels heavy and I can
No longer keep them on my tongue they just overflow
Like a waterfall – no waterfalls are beautiful and this is
Not beautiful it is like a toilet overflowing because the
Words are ugly and hurtful and detrimental but the thing is
Is that I can't avoid them I can't get rid of them
I can't do anything with them but say them because the longer
I keep them sitting on my tongue the longer they have
To crawl back into my head and swirl and swirl and swirl and swirl
Between my temples before settling back on my tongue waiting for their escape.
