I've been biting my tongue more.
I get so nervous that the words that come out my mouth will end up being the ones that I don't want to say.
You laugh at my new stutters as I struggle to hold in the words that are trickling out of my mouth.
But this only makes it harder to keep the words in,
Your smile shines as if the sun is your halo.
Looking away is the only option for a person that walks a path between the light and the shadows.
Carefully balancing myself between the two while pulling away from the hands of the light and of the shadows.
You offer a hug to cure my embarrassment. I reject, in fear of not being able to contain my emotions. Yet you don't listen.
