My words are twisted up into knots
December 11, 2011
My words are twisted up into knots
Tied up and compressed in a box
Waiting for the right set of key
Waiting for someone to set them free
Hoping that it will all be okay
I beat down my lips
Stopping it from releasing words that I would be able to say
I cant think, I cant sleep
I dig a hole and bury my feet
The vibration of my voice made it too deep
I’m helpless and I begin to sink
I wait for people to pass by
When the come all they can do is say hi
I have no voice to even be able to cry
