Words just
spill
out of my mouth
finding a home
in the shadows
of my pages
in the minds
of those who surround me
And they sting
my words
are hurricanes
tiny whirlwinds
of pain and
destruction
And i
can't stop them
because all they do
is spill out of
my mouth
like water from a
tap
and i blaze through
a wildfire
leaving a trail of
destruction
in my path
