In a manner of speaking

I just want to say

that I could never forget the way

you told me everything

by saying nothing

In a manner of speaking

I don’t understand

how love in silence becomes reprimand

But the way that I feel about you

is beyond words

Oh give me the words

Give me the words

that tell me nothing

Oh give me the words

Give me the words

that tell me everything …

There’s something simmering inside of me. Something I’ve never dared to tap into, something I’m afraid to acknowledge. There’s a part of me clawing to break free from the cage I’ve trapped it in, banging on the doors of my heart, begging to be free. Begging to let go.
