Bitter towards a world who can’t drown in the confusion of silence
I see your lips move, but what are you saying?
We continue to dust the food toward the edges of our plates,
Just as we always do,
Excusing the lack of communication
Because there’s everything to talk about
And nothing to say
We are on two opposite sides of the spectrum
And trust me, I would do anything if only to bridge the gap
But live with the knowledge that I can’t.
I’m only human too.
