Overflow

Explosion in Progress.

The words falling out of my mouth

Tumbling. 

I can’t concentrate.

    You tease me. 

        You please me.

The words continue to spew. 

You are undeniable.

You never cease to amaze me.

I want you.

I need you.

Overflowing my mind, body, and soul;

The truth must be heard.

I have to say it before I explode.

I say without regret. 

I love you. 

My mind starts to rest.

But not for very long.  

You never leave my head.

I think about you always.

But now you know how I feel.

FORM!! Hey, I just want to thank you for being one of the few poets that I have read that truly considers form. I sure do not. I just really love when I read someone who does. This is beautifully written, constructed, and flowing. The words do the action. It is almost onomatopoeia in and of itself. Tank you for sharing it. :)

Good lay-out. A poem with a lot of emotion. Well done.
