I would reinforce Tess’s suggestion to use more imagery than narrate personal experience or “tell” readers. Something else to try is separating clauses by line and sentences or paragraphs with stanzas if you’re not going to use punctuation:


Bitterness spews forth from lips
As the heart cracks open

Payment for the depth of pain
Caused by each vile word once formed

None can ever be washed clean again
So we wait
