Cautious Whispering
So tempting to spill, that life she endures Wanting so badly to vent, maybe ranting can cure Very few she MIGHT trust, too many big mouths Rarities among those who often shout She looks among the people in every direction Who can she choose for their undivided attention I won’t say a word, they’ll say with no smile Lying words if their silence can’t last awhile Thinking about what she’s going through No time for anyone who leaks her bad news She knows that even those who are close, can betray How quickly they can voice before the end of the day She’s finally settled on the ear for her anxious voice Hoping that this time, she’s made the right choice
