those things never said
never processed
they never led
you anywhere
those things you never said
the things you did instead
of saying
the things you never said
you distracted yourself, you read
hemmingway and travelogues
you skimmed through
countless strangers' blogs
instead
you should have just said
those things you never said
perhaps those things would have led
you to unite
with your former self
