Deafening Silence MAG
April 6, 2010
together, but separate in thought
we stand breathing in
thick unspoken words
aching quiet
blanketed stillness
debating whether to speak,
to move this along
knowingly we shuffle our feet
but my mouth refuses to open
stubborn silence creeps in
taunting us
a quick glimpse
our eyes meet
saying everything
