Don't Speak

Folder: 
Missing Him

You muster

the courage

to drip acid

off your tongue

with a shield

in front of you,

putting up fronts

to keep me from

getting close.



But when you

hold me in your arms,

you can’t help

but let your grasp

be gentle,

your stare loving.



Let’s keep the talking

to a minimum,

shall we?

really liked this and related to it too. i savour those moments, perfect in all their imperfections when talking would just complicate things and you both become entertwined. nice.
