Words
So many words
Trapped, unspoken, unpublished
Not even drafted for fear
Fear of accidental eyes, of accidental care
Fear of incorrectness, of change
Fear that he is right, as we've known all along.
So many words
Stories untold, unlistened for lack of chance
Sooner to accept the title of compulsive liar
Than find courage to accept, courage to tell, courage to believe
Ignorance is inexcusable
To believe that they'd care to hear, that you wouldn't just be wasting more breath:
Ignorant.
Inefficiency is inexcusable
To hope and pray and pretend and even believe once in a while that it isn't all an act, that people don't know:
A waste of time.
Selfish, greedy, unaware, undeserving
Dead a thousand times over and lucky to live such a life, to receive such care and kindness
Shut your mouth and take what you can get. You deserve none of it so don't complain bitch
