Just Say IT

You make sunlight bend.

A glimmering aura borders me from you.

We speak and laugh

as my heart whines and keeps hush-hush.

My true emotions rolled up like a message

written on weathered cloth

in a corked glass bottle,

floating out to sea.

You started a war

in my head, without knowing.

All the possible reasons for why I'm not good enough,

shoot down the reasons I am.

The storm subsides, as my brain

waves pull and crash onto the D-Day sand.

I climb up from the pit in my stomach-

We need to talk.
