I called to you, wanting to let go of this words I so badly wanted to say for so long.
I have to hurry or everything else will fall into oblivion.
Eye to Eye and yet my mouth cannot speak.
My voice, silent for once, as my heart slowly beats the life away from me.
My tongue, tied as my hands fold into a tight fist, holding the last thread of my composure I still have left for myself.
My mind, carefully choosing the right words to say and yet, still no words left my lips.
I wanted to tell you the truth. That in spite of everything I say or act it is not the words that I have honestly wanted to say for so long.
I just really wanted to be embraced by you, an escape from my pain that I've so badly wanted to tell you for so long, and yet I can't bring myself to tell you this out of fear of rejection.
So, I close my eyes,
I close my mouth,
I close my heart,
I close my mind and finally I let my fingers let go of these fallen words of mine.
As these unspoken words disappear into oblivion, I replied "Nothing" and smiled.
