SPEAK

By Anunnaki

You sound more swearing each time that we speak,
It used to be just words before, now everything is so bleak.
I really want to be all that you need me to be and more,
I just can't.. right now.

The first time that we kissed we both couldnt speak,
Probably had something to do with the state of our lips.
Sometimes I feel you reach out to me stretching that hope once more,
It just always fades so quick.

You know I get sad when we dont speak,
When I think of how our bond grew and broke to bits.
Its those tears that help me to gather strength and courage,
To fight some how.

When am close to you I can .... I just can't speak,
When the opportunity presents itself am dead inside and just so weak.
I wish you would let me bring you in and show you what you mean to me,
You just so f--king out of reach.

  • A former member wrote: This makes me remember something that my grandmother told me when I was a teenager "think before you speak, because once you say something, it's out there and there's no taking it back". In a lot of cases, words hurt more than a punch, and can do a lot more damage. I appreciate this in all it's sincerity. Great job, darlin'. Rebs:).

    Great write. The first stanza really stood out to me. Words hurt. I don't say hurtful words but I swear a lot and at my age it is very unattractive. Enjoyable read. JD

    I really liked this.... however, the line "You sound more swearing" doesn't make sense to me.

    It was more a feeling than an actual sentence i just went with it.

    What a wonderful piece, so sad, yet beautiful. It speaks volumes to many of those that have had that same hope that becomes a crushing force of despair. Keep writing!
