Sealed Lips

The words get stuck,
Get stuck in my throat,
They do not get out

I am not able to spit it.
All the loaded weight
That prevents me from sleep.
In my head those words have been
Uttered thousands of times in all contexts
And situations imaginable,
But the reality is different.

Words are double-edged swords:
They can heal or can destroy hearts,
Can give hope or leave devastated,
Can strengthen or destroy the rope...

You can only release them
And wait to see the effect.

When we sleep, we see and feel sometimes so much more, than when we speak, or live through the day, in our sleep, the true feelings, and heartstrings sing, and we should listen carefully to them.
They always have something for us to say. Also when they are heavy, and with much weight... this weight is important, not to lose, but to embrace, to make a real point out of it. I admire you, because you always do it.

Reality is so different, second worlds are the places we dream, reality is reality, a place, with no hope... (or temprary hope) if we look close in reality, there is always a viper, around the corner, may it be the governement, family a lover, a life task, or a feeling or another thing, that get's in the way,

To sing some words out of your heat, is art, love, you do it great, and I truly want you to never stop writing. :) because it makes people as complicated as myself think... ponder, love...
Always a pleasure to read you dear Sis, I love you! xxxxxx

Wow! What an interesting piece you dropped. Thanks pretty for taking some time to write this beautiful poem which's covered with emotions, love, memories and reality. All stanzas are good and sensible reading, But you know what I hate to see you bad, don't feel bad, I know this world gives always hurt right into the depth of angel's heart but you gotta be strong and don't seal your lips because your lips are what that always gives warmth to let the air be cold in a way everybody could learn how beautiful lips 'Maya' Has got and they always whisper in a cold voice to earn what you've ever deserved, coz, living the life beautiful is also your right and yeah ... to make every pretty angel happy's an every devils work.. so that all angels could feel safe and protective in the arms of cute devils.
Haha! "(Smile)"

Interesting this piece was and words can either make or break a person, just depends on how they decide to take them as they are directed towards them. It's always best to be honest with yourself and others, or else I feel you'd be living a lie. We shouldn't lie to ourselves or lead a fake life, it's always best to live our lives to the fullest and help other people live theirs the same way. I also love the title and truth you put behind this. Truly wonderful!

[Half Dream]

Exactly!! I really appreciate your wonderful review as well. :)

Gamble at your own risk or rather make educated decisions so that you use words to help rather than destroy. Words truly can be quite powerful and I think this poem definitely shows that. A fine write here and Merry Christmas!

[Half Dream]
