couldnt let you know

by Vikki Owens

i couldnt let you know i love you
or that this humble heart
breaks down, like a stumbling drunk
like a sideswiped car parked near an overpass.
hiked up skirt, hitching on to hope,
nothing floats too close to me--
surrounded by a wall of bees
and electric insecurities,
it really isnt easy to see inside me,
or even offer me an apology.
