Inaudible WhispersA Poem by jacob erin-cilbertoInaudible Whispers
secrets, decrepit composure eyes hiding shadows
everyone's about their
day but i can't toss the
night of you over my shoulder,
so i carry secrets and hush others' stares with a stolid gaze
inside i'm still outside
your heart but zip us into embrace just for show
they will never know, and i'll just keep
walking into sunsets
like i have some idea of where i am going
a secret my own heart keeps from me.
