Choked

Tears are like my feelings afraid to come out.

Screaming, shouting, bouncing off the walls of my soul.

The one person I thought I could share everything with I end up hiding myself from...

When I dare venture to step on that rickety old bridge,

I am quickly cast over the side by the barrage of foul words that come from your mouth.

I never thought I would heard you speak to me in such a way.

However there you are voice loud, bass in your words, and a frown on your face.

Fear washes over me and my words gets stuck in my throat.

I choke on the truth trying not to upset you,

Because even though you're not thinking about my feelings.

I am consistently thinking of yours.
