A Heart Stuffed

My heart is full of words

And I’m chewing slowly,

As to not choke

Or have them catch in my throat.

My heart is full of words

And I’m mumbling between beats,

Wiping off the excess phrases

Dripping down the sides.

My heart is full of words

And everything is mashed together,

A conglomerate of silent whispers

Deep fried in slippery doubts.

Listen to them crunch,

Breaking between each breath.

My heart is full of words,

Just waiting for you to hear them.
