Breakfast For None

I'm crying in my cornflakes,I just dont know what to do. I know- I lost my temper and ended up hollering at you. So now you will not speak to me, I guess, this I do deserve, but you need to know I'm sorry, my temper I will curb. Last night was my mistake,I should have bit my tongue, It's just I was so angry-it seems my brain went numb. So I'm crying in my cornflakes,my tears don't seem to stop. I've got to make you see- my words are not some prop. Ive thrown away my breakfast-salt soaked- so full of tears. If only you could hear me- I don't mean with your ears. Please feel how my heart beats- whenever your around- It's you that makes it flutter - It's you who makes it pound. So tommorrow- I'll make pancakes,no cornflakes,not for me. I know you'll understand-- I know somehow you'll see. RJM2011
