Can't Swallow

by oetting

I pour my heart out in ink. As it spills all over the sink, I can’t help but blink and think To just take another drink. Gotta swallow back this sorrow. Time to rethink about the marrow. Try to re-sync my chest which is now hallow And filled with stink. No longer can swallow, My throat has a kink. My blink becomes a long wink. Can’t swallow. I shrink. Now at the brink I fall down to this sink With all this spilled ink.
