My tongue,
Cramped in its cage,
Constantly uncomfortable,
Pining for release.

My tongue,
When allowed a
Temporary freedom,
Rebels against my words.

My tongue,
Turns every
S or C
Into an impediment.

I grew up with a lisp and S and L are the two sounds that mess me up all the time. I really loved this poem so much. Thank you for sharing!
