Silent lips
Speak nothing.
Your eyes
Say everything.

You stand there
With nothing to feel.
No words to tell me.
No emotion to spill out onto the floor.

What I did
Has no proof for this.
Has no reason for this.
Yet you still stand there.

Silent lips
Say nothing.
Your eyes
Dead cold coals.

This person that stands in front of me
I don’t know her anymore.
You’ve changed
By the jealousy you hold.

Childish play
Surrounds your immaturity.
Overreact about everything
Things don’t go your way
Throw a hissy fit
Now its okay…right?

Silent lips
Still as ice.
Your eyes
Looking away.

My eyes look straight threw you
Into your soul.
To see what hidden hatred
You try to hide.

Silent lips
Sown tight.
My lips
Spill blood you try to hide.
