watch your lips to discern what you say even though my ears can hear the sounds i’ve got no clarity it’s like swimming in the ocean and trying to feel the sun
(i thought i) said everything that i needed to say (but now) there’s more words clogging up the passageways (and then i) can barely breathe around them can’t swallow none of it down eruption waiting to happen but i can’t make a sound
your words are muffled hidden under white noise ocean wave crashing sounds in my head like my ears are stuffed with cotton and the silence kills me i let my eyes caress your lips and tease syllables from the weight of your breath
promises and paths are perfect it’s humans that are flawed wrap personal tastes and distractions in pretty paper and call them laws govern the ones who need you least congratulate yourself on a job well done shudder in that grave of silence when it all explodes under the sun
