What I Needed To Say

Oh, now I know It's coming.

The point in time when I can't take it.

A certain conversation I'd rather not have.

Too much of my free time on the net.

My folks tell me I shouldn't make it a habit.

What I needed to say, my point of view.

As they leave the house, I gather my breath to speak my mind, but say nothing.

When the door closes in front of me, I am silent.

Slowly, the words escape from my lips.

But no one is listening.
