rip a hole in your
heart and what comes
pouring out
all those times you
smiled awkwardly
and hunched in on yourself
all those times you

got caught in your throat
and what about all those
times people didn’t

is not a synonym for extroversion

are the ones that stick in
your throat
(because extroversion is not a
synonym for introversion
no matter what they say)
