Volcanic Spirals

It’s like something wants to come up,
Like a volcano that’s ready to erupt,
Everything that’s been sunk and saturated full,
It’s getting ready to finally burst my soul,

I didn’t want to shut it all up,
My brain was a sponge at every turn,
I tried so hard to pull it out with my strength,
But I underestimated the length of my pain,

I feel myself circling the truth
narrowing in on the target
spitting and spewing excuses
like darts ruining a blameless wall
until…..bullseye!
I've never been good enough…
