Spit it Out

Spit it Out

A Poem by Neville

Spit it Out

 

Why don’t you

just bite your tongue

  

And break the silence

neither of us really wanted

  

Where lies

are not long, nor lost or wasted

  

But well hidden among

yesterday’s contempt and distaste

  

Oh’ and love of course

there was always a touch of that

  

Come on …..

why not just bite your tongue

  

And learn the lesson

we have all come to call forgiveness

  

feel free to insert a name of your own choosing in the space above

Whoa, whoa. Sounds like a matrimonial to me. Sounds like the sort of unpleasant silences that can go on for day,s where at least one party stonewalls the other. Better to spit it out, have a huge barney, a dose of forgiveness and love and makeup. It don't happen like that though. That's for the movies. No let it fester, let it boil in the cauldron. Forgiveness? You got to be joking. I inserted a name in invisible ink. Fortunately I no longer reside with him.

You can count your lucky stars. I have to say he is much nicer to me now he doesn't own me.

Silences are so biting in themselves. I'd rather bite my own tongue and scream forgiveness! I think it makes practical sense to break the impasse and let love fill the gaps.
P.S. Her name starts with D but I dare not say her name. She has mighty claws!

Hindsight is such a remarkable thing, but would be so much better if it arrived a little earlier in the proceedings. Would have saved me chewing through my tongue years ago.
And thank Phillipa for gumshields... And earplugs 😀
