“That’s all I have to say”

These words are so powerful

To know when you have said all that you wanted

And feel like it is enough

Whereas for me

I overexplain

I wring it out and soak it and wring it out again

My past has taught me as such

To want people to believe me

But not know when or if they do

Because when I’d think that I’ve said it all

They claim that I have not

“You should have told me”

“Now you’re hurt”

Makes me believe

I never say enough
