Fear of Mouth

I'm afraid,

of what I might say.

I fear my mouth.

Because I might say something wrong.

I might ruin something.

Too many things have gone wrong form things I've said.

I need to watch my mouth.

 

I might hurt someone.

I must speak little,

and listen more.

I'm afraid

of what I might say.

So I'll save what I have to say.

Because it may lead me astray.

So I'll keep it to myself.

And I'll be very stealth.
