Hold Your Tongue

Sometimes the words I plan out in my head
Don't come out the way I wish I had said.
But what's even worse is the way that I curse
When I don't even say them at all.

I taste them on the tip of my tongue,
The thing you taught me to hold.

That taste in my mouth was never the words, but the blood from biting my tongue.
