Silence

I cannot speak,

though I still think.

 

My words are lost,

adrift between the mind,

the heart, and the soul.

 

The lump builds in

my throat,

choking me,

strangling me.

 

I cannot speak,

but oh how I dream

to tell you how I feel.

 

So that our voices could be silenced

in the kiss of true love.
