No one wants to be crowned "Coward",
But the rusty taste that colors
your tongue after saying too much,
Is not a flavor one wants to have for dinner, either.
The jump that broke your bones,
For just a second, your mind was intoxicated,
And left the control panel to your heart,
But the aftermath is what shall linger and stay.
Maybe it's not about courage,
Maybe it's more than a closed-eye moment of bluntness,
Maybe you like the interior design of your mind,
And you want to stay there with no intruders.
