bite your tongue
but don't make it bleed
the blood mingles with the stifled words in your mouth
and makes them too personal, too powerful
impossible to keep in
blood keeps pouring out along with your soul
your voice reaches a sanguine bravado
offending people with statements you believe wholeheartedly
