With trembling hands I kiss you goodnight with my thoughts weighing me down and turning my stomach into knots like there's a storm inside my brain. I can't even form a sentence because every letter feels like thorns caressing my lips. I want to tell you I love you but I'm afraid of the thorns tearing my lips apart so I will stay quiet . I hug you with my screaming thoughts and hope you can't hear the thorns shredding my tongue to pieces.

The thorns in my mouth.
With trembling hands I kiss you goodnight with my thoughts weighing me down and turning my stomach into knots like there's a storm inside my brain. I can't even form a sentence because every letter feels like thorns caressing my lips. I want to tell you I love you but I'm afraid of the thorns tearing my lips apart so I will stay quiet . I hug you with my screaming thoughts and hope you can't hear the thorns shredding my tongue to pieces.
