Silence

I am caught in the mist of confusion
Living lies unkind so untrue
My feelings are marred very jumbled
It's unclear how I feel about you
The talent you possess
Brings my heart to envy
The words unspoken
Speak of truth unsaid
So many thoughts now wander
Forever in my head
I FEAR SILENCE
The words that are not spoken
Are clearly heard when lips are closed
Secrets understood
Although they go voiceless
Obvious to those who listen
To the silence
It screams the truth
That dared not be told
A future soon to be told
A future soon to be
Will now unfold
Before the eyes
That say more than lips
Masks will fall
And when they do
I will be vulnerable to you
