Telling

In Life we don’t always do

  The right thing, made the

  Best choices,

But someone, somewhere has

  Always got a louder

        Voice,

There are times in which

   We think we’ve gotten

  Away with it,

When in fact, we never

  Get away with

        Shit.

Sometimes it’s someone else,

  Sometimes it’s our very

        Own self

We sit back and think

   “It’ll be okay, I’ve

    Put it on a shelf”.

But as it sits back on

  That shelf it’ll eat

  Us away.

It’ll eat and eat until

  It eats so much it

  Kills us one day.

You won’t be able to

  Take any more and

   It’ll eventually spill,

It’ll erupt like a volcano

 With a fury set to

   Seek, destroy and kill.

Life will cease to exist.

   In every way that

    We know it,

And we may not realize it

   But given enough time,

   We will show it.

Eventually, given enough

   Time, we’ll hang

          Ourselves.

Either we’ll tell ourselves,

      Or it will be the

       Voice of someone else.
