words get in the way, when you don't have an eraser or a delete button
sometimes, i wish i was better at talking than at writing.
words fail me when i get scared of anger and rejection. the voice is a powerful thing.
at least with singing, 99.44% of the time, i can't fail.
talking...that's a different story.
with writing, you have time to think, delete, revise, plan, edit...
if you write off the top of your head, it could be poetry, it could be drunken babbling, it could be...
...something you can hide behind.
but once you speak -- those words are out there.
and even a small blip of a thought can be caught in the air and misconstrued.
i just get so scared.
(please be patient with me...)
