Damn Dam I am

The view bolted my core

Inflated my guts

I’m filled to capacity.

 

 

I’ve been told a million times

“You look prettier when silent”

Is that what beauty is?

Accumulated pressure – time bomb?

 

 

My life spent gazing at the floodgates

Wooing liberation

Will it ever come – or will I die waiting?

Damn dam I am
