my mouth is dry
no words escape
i am silent
not of my own devices
but because of you
the trust i had
is no more
i can't trust myself
not this time
it only hurts me
so i will stay
silent
inarticulate
because if i try to speak
i will break down
into a mess of blood and tears
so please don't probe
please don't care
just leave me here
hushed
silenced
