I carry it around
Just in case
The paper bag
…
Sometimes empty
But lately there’s always something inside
Where are the words I left last time?
…
I try not to lose
Whatsoever inside
The crunchy bag
…
Sometimes it’s difficult
As lately I tend to lose things on the way
Where are the words I left last time?
…
I try hard
to keep some of those words
In the colorless bag
…
Sometimes they jump out
But lately I’m managing to put them back
Where are the words I left last time?
…
I carry it around
Just in case I need them handy
the bag of the things we never dare to say
At least until now but maybe, maybe tonight
