Why I Write, Part x+231: I Exhale

Most people speak words.
Few exhale them,
But they are as much a part of me
As digestion is.
I could stop them as easily
As my heartbeat,
Words mounting words
Following words
Followed by words,
Most saying nothing.
When I have something to say,
I will tell you,
Unless I forget.

(I'll probably forget.)
