Don't say it outloud. poem

 

The words run through my mind,

Over and over again

Loud as thunder, fresh as rain

Say it silently, wanting more

I won’t be the one to open that door.

It rings through my head

Smiling secretly instead

Hold it back, bite your lips

Don’t admit you’ve slipped

Falling asleep it’s there

Too fast, too raw, too rare

Fallen from my cloud

Don’t say it yet angel, don’t say it out loud.

Hold it inside, your own secret to keep

Please god don’t let me talk in my sleep

Fallen so far from my cloud

Not yet angel, don’t say it out loud.
