The Creator gave you a voice but you can not speak
Your lack of conversation can go on for weeks
With no desire to describe how you are ultimately feeling
You choose silence as a way of dealing
You decided long ago that others aren’t worthy of your words
For what? They’ll only act as if they were never heard
Silence says everything but yet nothing at all
It rarely gives accountability when your backs against the wall
Your silence says “I’m not sure how to tell you what I need to say
honestly if I said it, you wouldn’t understand it anyway
I’d rather stay silent than to give you a chance to hear me out
I’d rather you sit and guess what my silence is all about
When I’m silent I become the one with all the power
It makes you sit up and take notice that I am truly a delicate flower”
Silence is not golden when it is done out of spite
It’s not even a reward when you believe that you are right
Silence can be the key to apparent miscommunication
It can also be used to avoid an entire situation
But what silence can also do is tear people apart
Especially when it pertains to matters of the Heart
