little leaks

It's been long since I wrote a poem
but perhaps not too long
who wants to read these lines
that never quite rhyme

So many poems speak
in so many different ways
this one speaks of what is not
it speaks to not speaking

by holding in one thing
another springs forth
it is the mind's condition
it's bounty seeks an exit

our brains are balloons
if not allowed to open
they spring small leaks
or sometimes pop at once

and so my words
are little leaks
my heart explodes
with nothing said
