When you open your mouth

To spill the secrets

Hidden beneath your tongue

They can be backlashed

Turned against you

Stabbed

With a knife

Through the words

You have said

If you try to pick them up

The pieces

You won’t be able to mend

What has been broken

Because they didn’t respect you

To treasure your words

You had spoken

To hold them close

Like a warm blanket

On a cold night

They made it broken

That which was a secret

Be careful out there.
