Brain Pain Freeze
Handcuffed to my silence Tongue on ice
Thoughts cubes choke in my throat
Grew a goiter sadness spawned anger icicles crystallized soulless salt
Cries deferred, iced tear-drips, blocked feelings chilled on lock
Frosted honesty believing if I spoke freely he would thaw - leave me icy
Still abandoned, stored his neglect in my mind
Stormed hurt, raging fear blizzard blanketed my world
Shivering created a cushioned distraction - thyroid disease
30 extra pounds of psychic warmth protection my barrier to love
Dared not speak...would die if rejected
Denied... his heat never tried to warm me
Soulthermia, killing me coldly
My mind the frozen cave where I dwelled. Found my sun. Today I speak.
Compelled to spit it Expression this Zero Below Naked Thought
Thawed emotion released my/our fear, shame, insecurities
Truth-sicles ice-cream for the licking. Facilitating freedom
voices MELTED
Speak Baby Speak
