Words for a wordless experience.

we never really spoke much

just

uttered actions

communed in caresses

whispered in gentle embraces

love

never left your lips

but I swore I felt it

once

twice

maybe

silence

screamed the loudest

a reply

three days late

emotions drifting

too quiet to catch

so they fell

into miscommunication

and unlived expectations

maybe there’s too much to say

maybe there’s nothing at all

either way

my skin rattles

with the sound of broken bones

I want to tell you

how my heart shattered

like a vase on tile

but even if I did

would it matter?

we never really spoke much

and now

we don’t speak

at all
