You are sweet Like overripe fruit Forgotten in my kitchen Salty skin in the summer Lips touch under shady trees Watching busy bees Float by My mind is a busy bee Thinking turning spiraling Out of control Just a book waiting To be written I cannot trail words Together and make Them make sense I can only break Words apart between My teeth and spit Them out Hoping they hold the Answer all on their own Because I cannot slow Down and think about it Think about the words They come out in quick Angry bursts Sudden sad sounds Spilling out of my mouth I try to swallow them Whole but I can’t I can only choke Out sorry Sorry sorry I’m so sorry For failing And falling And wanting And needing You

You are sweet Like overripe fruit Forgotten in my kitchen Salty skin in the summer Lips touch under shady trees Watching busy bees Float by My mind is a busy bee Thinking turning spiraling Out of control Just a book waiting To be written I cannot trail words Together and make Them make sense I can only break Words apart between My teeth and spit Them out Hoping they hold the Answer all on their own Because I cannot slow Down and think about it Think about the words They come out in quick Angry bursts Sudden sad sounds Spilling out of my mouth I try to swallow them Whole but I can’t I can only choke Out sorry Sorry sorry I’m so sorry For failing And falling And wanting And needing You
