Silence

Is it better to just keep quiet?

There was nothing but silence,

But why would I expect any less?

Vicious and controlling,

You couldn't be more boring.

"Hello, how are you?"

You asked, but I was so blue.

I never did want this

Unending, complete bliss.

Why would you find me?

All I wanted was to flee.

No one would question,

Would dare to ask.

The only one that did?

It was you.

As much as I desire

You more than the fire

Burning in my soul,

You do not define me.

Through my heart you tread,

With a boot well-worn.

Spinning, disturbing my head,

Maybe I am better off dead.

There was nothing but silence,

And though my mind may cry,

The heart I put out for you

Couldn't be more empty.
