T H E S E    W O R D S
spill of my tongue
like promises that could never be kept
T H E S E    W O R D S
run out of my mouth
like pain that could never be properly explained
T H E S E    W O R D S
flow past my lips
like the screams that escaped my mind but couldn't be voiced
T H E S E    W O R D S
stick in my throat
like the story that i kept hidden in the back of my mind
T H E S E    W O R D S
are silenced
by the men who take everything from the women
who suffer everything for the love of a father
