I don't know what possessed me. I wish I knew how to keep my mouth shut. This is why ambiguity is key to my survival--it allows an outlet without making me look silly, without room for regret.
Maybe the poem will explain better.
***
We want it to be vague
Because we’re afraid
Of reality and being too close
To talk of feeling
You can’t say the word
It’s just too
Hard
Easy
Soft
Cheesy
A bad omelet
That no one wants to eat
I could never say
Heartbreak
Or love
Without a person
Shaking their head
Hair
There!
You did it just now
Didn’t you?
Thought it was too much
