Rivers

All rivers must flow,

And there is a dam holding back every word I want to say to you,

Every letter, consonant, vowel, and period welled into one giant river,

The pressure is that of a hurricane,

Threatening to break the barrier, to drip through is too gentle of a description.

My thoughts would rip through you like a twig in a bulldozer's path,

Crush you like a flower under foot,

And curse you like black magic to a damned man.

Everything I have held back, shut in, and stopped up would finally break through and reach you.

Every time you have let me down and made me feel like s**t,

I held my tongue, but all dams break,

All silences end,

All hearts stop.

And when the dam breaks,

The water will not be sweet.
