Lesser of Two Evils

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Whether or not
I speak up
My feelings won't disappear
They'll still dwell
Lurking somewhere
In my heart
In the shadows
In the corners
With company
Of course.

Chances are
If I speak up
I'll shoot myself
In the foot,
And I know
How you hate blood.

If I hold my tongue
And bite off the tip
I'll still have you
Maybe not in the way
I insist on
But I'll have you-

If I can't be in it
Atleast I'll have it.
