Boulders

7 1 0
                                    

That sentence
It's so important
Answers all the questions you've hurled at me time and time again

But I can't
The words are stuck
A boulder lodged in my larynx
Of all the things I wish I could tell you

The problem is
I'm a coward
An absolute mess
Too scared to tell you who I am

I'm sorry for keeping this from you
Please
Forgive me one day
