There are days I must confide
I scream, but only inside
I won’t let words out
To walk or run about
I’ll keep my words stuck
So I will not spew yuck
The action of my restraint
It feels like I will faint
It’s not that I don’t care
The ugly words I refuse to share
Other mouths may open wide
But I will hide my scream inside
Self-control won’t steer me wrong
The scream is where it belongs
