Don’t walk away, don’t stare at the wall
Don’t ignore my words that tumble and stall
Questions that light like a kiss on my lips
Extinguish your smile into silence.
Although I need more than an explanation
All I receive is blank contemplation
Don’t ignore my words that tumble and stall
Can’t you choose me over the silence?
I pull you into a deliciously forced hug
You untangle my hands with a shrug
Confused over exactly when trust packed its bags
And handed her keys to the silence.
Two faces, one fading but the other defined
Each locking their thoughts in their minds
Just don’t walk away, don't take the day
Don’t leave me alone with the silence.
