Words Unspoken

Submitted by Kristen H. on Thu, 2023-03-02 20:57

Heart bound by fear
Tongue laced to my lips.

Words are left
Unspoken.

My hand is my mouth.
Pen, my tongue.
Flowing freely
The words that are locked in my throat.

Breath hitched
And the thought
Of using my voice

My voice is the one you hear with your eyes
The one that speaks the truth.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.
