there's just so much
that goes unsaid
so many words
i wish you could understand
feel them with your fingers
maybe then i could
wrap my mind around them
and force them through
my pursed lips
and your deaf ears
so many
times
i've cried so hard
my flesh burns
and my bones ache
and the thought of another
day
another year
another
moment
is enough to
drive me mad
some days are so dark
i have to wonder
if my eyes are even open
if they ever will be
if they ever were...
