Acidity
September 9, 2012
Words sear my tongue like acid drops
Burning to be heard, corroding my thoughts
Coursing from my heart to my mouth
Roadblocked by my sensible goddamn head.
I can’t wait – it’s sizzling, all-consuming
Hiding what I truly want to say
will never relieve the burn.
[and I am certainly not the only girl who thinks she can write some f***ing poetry
But does the world need any more self-doubt
from the hordes of insecure teenage girls?]
