Watch your words

Put a guard in front of my mouth.

I’ll put a foot in yours.

Your stupidity scares me.

My voice becomes a bore.

Every look, word or move

made in anger.

Every sharp tongue

painted in spite.

Every time you walk out,

shatters my heart.

Time to watch your words.

Count them one by one.

Swallow them whole.

Being defensive builds the walls

that breaks the view.

Being silly breaks the strings

that ties us together.

This sucks the creativity

out of my bones.

Kills the passion in my soul.

When you wake up, it’ll be to late.

I’ll watch my words.

Swallow them one by one.

Count the days till you’re gone.
