A Villanelle I Must Tell

There are so many things I must say In this fleeting moment of time But go and have a wonderful day Choking on words, I get in my way For every thought, I’ll give a dime There are so many things I must say Locked up so tight, my mind might decay To not tell you might be a crime But go and have a wonderful day Who can tell how much my brain weighs It is a mountain of thoughts too tall to climb There are so many things I must say Listening, you’d feel on broadway Until then, I’ll be a sad mime But go and have a wonderful day By now my day is looking gray Haven’t said a thing, not even a chime There are so many things I must say But go and have a wonderful day
