We smile at each other
Not able to find the words
To say
You realize for the first time
How much I care
I think you feel it too
Yet we skirt around each other
Not knowing what to say
Going in circles
Time and time again
Emotions conflicting with others
Bring my heart into turmoil
I’m breaking to pieces
And soon the circle will be gone
As I leave
I am weary of it all
My muteness has caused the death
Of all my thoughts and feelings
Yet how can I go on
Knowing that you wait
Helpless in your own inability
In our circle
That only I can bring back
And though it’s lines have worn thin
It waits for my return.
