No Words

An oldy, but a goody written in 2009...

No Words


Silence is what fills the room though tension persists

Anger roams around and squeezes in each cavity of your existence

What could there be to discuss, apologies have already been given

But under your blank stare, cold touch and frustration you are boiling

With negative thoughts, your face says it all and it’s not quite the dearest

I ask for answers but only get rolling eyes and looks of disgust

I decide to let it go, talking is not quite your strong suit

But that was the wrong choice as your words cut me with the strength of a brute


Mouth hanging wide, shocked is my expression

You’ve made up your mind I am wrong for my decisions

How could I be such a terrible person?

How can I not see that that I’m wrong for my choices and actions?

Defend myself I do, strong and unwavering

Yet at me again you come with your plan of dismembering

It’s clear you’ve thought for lengths on my disturbing behavior

But what you don’t see are the words that came after


Remember that time, or wait all those years

Remember when you left me, now here come the tears

Remember when it was your choice to leave me for these actions

Remember when I didn’t get to decide as you left my heart cut open like a canyon

Remember how I let you back in and I let you stay

Remember how I let your wrong actions become right and you get your way

Remember when I left my friends for yours and chose you

Remember I let you choose your friends, but choose me you did not do


Don’t ever come at me like I’m not fully committed

Don’t ever act as though I have done anything other than given

You everything, regardless of cost time or energy

Don’t’ ever act like I have only thought of me

For when you decided that regardless of my feelings, everything you must have

I fell to my knees trying to do nothing but give

So stop and think before you come at me with your hurtful words like you do

And remember that when it got rough you chose your friends, when I chose you
