I want to say more Than your name Or I think it is your name It comes out a jumbled mess A mouth full of scrabble tiles I spit out words You tell me I talk too much Peel myself apart Exposing my heart Before appetizers arrive to the table And you can’t enjoy your salad With my heart beating Upon your plate I try to zip myself back up It was too late though All my stories flooded the table Blabbering the details Until I could make a nine course meal From your ridicule
