There are often words that I'm scared to say
And in truth I am not brave
So I practice these words when I am alone
In the shower
And saying them aloud reminds me that words have power
I practice them again
Over and over
As if I was reciting them to a lover
I'll probably never say them to anyone else
But at least I get them off my chest
Instead of leaving them in my head as a jumbled mess
I think that there are not many people who are unafraid to say exactly what they want to say to everyone in their life, but I find saying those things to no one in particular is somewhat therapeutic.
