I let out too much, too soon
Like an untied balloon losing its' air,
Like a bottle of soda bursting at an unwound cap.

I let out too much, and much too soon-
I know because I am with my chin on my knees,
Wondering how I could open up so easily

To someone who doesn't know too much,
And not soon enough to realize that
Me opening up is like a tidal wave engulfing the shore.

You don't know much about that
I'm soon enough going to let all my secrets leak
From my cracks and tell me, can you handle that?
