Elephant in the Room
March 10, 2013
Don't shut me out.
Don't push me away.
Anything but the silence
Can just as easily say,
Your words unspoken,
And the feelings true,
With the thoughts you meant,
As I sat next to you.
I'm ripped.
I'm torn.
I'm battered and beaten.
Lying on the ground,
With nothing to sweeten,
The song of the silence,
That stands perfectly still;
In the abandoned room,
That no words could fill.
