consideration of consequences

eepest thoughts that shouldn't be shared
but kept as secrets locked away in the recess
of the furthest corners of your mind
bind them tight girl, so they can't unwind

keep that searing pain buried out of sight
bringing it out into the light
causes others to hurt and see you
in a way that you don't want them to

never mind the intention
doesnt matter whether with malice or just to unburden
forethought was needed and went unattended
consideration of consequences should always be taken
thoughts of the effects that the unburdening may have
on the person you didn't take into account
when sharing the vileness inside your head

it was gruesome and gory but not meant to be wounding
words on paper to help the healing
the words were little compared to the feeling

but i should've thought, and stayed sober to boot
instead of trying to share with you
have learnt now, that just like you do
i will keep darkest emotions to myself too.



now, can i let it go?
