art is subjective, elongated emotion

why don't you just
say what you mean
before a whisper
turns into a scream
you don't have to
you don't have to
be so strong all the time
you don't have to
you don't have to
do what's right
it's not a crime
we don't talk
we just do
what we're supposed to
we don't love
we just pretend
at me and you

rarely proportionate to the inspiration that birthed it
