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
