Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Enveloped and doped

Cool it down

Cool it down

Tomorrow is a new day

Forgotten from what happened 

Yesterday

Teasing the words

spraying out

from the shotgun mouth

Spreading through the mind with offensive words

A momentary rage

I can't see!!

What I said wrong

I can't see

I won't see!!

Ticking over

Weighing up

Scrabbling, searching

Thinking

We are hurting

Hurting together. seperately together

I hurt for your hurting

Stems from the off beat blurting

Apologies wear thin

Forgiving the words

Wondering 

What tomorrow may bring

Waiting

For the bite

the sting

Throw away the ring

hang ups?

The same old phone call rings

Discarding from the dials

Way too many trials

Too long a distance in telephone wires

Silence

Not shouting

Just a connecting mind who

forgives

gives 

but forgives

◄ A million little pieces

Drunken fool ►
