You can’t do it, can you? You just can’t say it, right?

It’s only a word.
It’s only a phrase
but it’s just what is stopping delays
in our future to end.
Why can’t you bend?

The four letter word you’re avoiding
is voiding the life we could have.
I could hold in my hand
it is practically here.
Is it fear that compels you,
containing the word that I need
you to say? You know that I pray
every day for the word to be said
and I tread with my dread through some steps
over eggs in the hopes that you’ll stretch out your legs
and become brave enough to just take on the stuff in your head
and just get the lead out and just shout the word to the skies above.

Shout the word to the skies above.
Shout the word to the skies above.
Shout it.
But you can’t say it, can you?
You just can’t do it.
You can’t.
