Speak
Poem
What are we saying
In the silences between us?
Are there unspoken words?
Nothing at all?
And emptiness fills me up
Everytime
The silence stretches
On
And
On
And
On
Building my doubt
Fueling fears I dare not voice
What would you say
If you knew?
Maybe you'd have no real words
To say
Merely things you want me to hear
Maybe you'd speak honesty
And the silence would run
On
And
On
And
On
Until you find words again.
