Pink Lips

You know when you just can't be bothered talking to someone, but they talk to you anyway. This is that

Their bland monotone voice. Droning on and on and on, I can see their lips crashing together but no sound emerging from between them, just flip flop, flip flop. I can see the liquids of their mouth between their lips, just dripping from the top one to the bottom. They rant away as I sit there just pretending to listen, really all I’m doing is staring at their maws just opening and closing, forming different shapes for nothing but muted sounds. I question if there’s an actual point to me sitting here and putting on a really bad act that I care. I’m really just begging that they don’t ask me a question, I mean, if they do what am I supposed to say? “Your lips are pink” is the only thing I can really say to them right and even then it might make the most sense.

I can feel this piece on a personal level, this is well written but I think it's supposed to be jaw.

Nah, maws are like another word for mouth

Put me off, connotations aren't in your favour if you're serious
