i just keep finding myself

in a frozen desert of words

i never said

in the moments i should have

despite having so much to say

there's never a word i can say

about what matters

to me

when it feels

like i could be swallowed whole

into the sinkholes

that occur in my mind

past 3 am

with the words that were left on me

weighing me down

if only i was that way

if only i did better

if only i did not leave

each tying a knot

entangled into my arteries

and even if i try to find air

on a rooftop past midnight

with the moon phasing out

or by dawn, with the sun

wiping of any remains

of the darkness that exists in me

only superficially

while i bleed internally

a pool of empty thoughts

now filling up my lungs

and as i suffocate

with my baggage

i wonder

why did i not just say it.
