Dumb Mouths                        

by sloanranger



Would they could speak,

your wounds -

poor dumb mouths.

And I could tell

them,

be still

no guilt,

it's all gone.

No need now

to punish yourself.

Shhh...

Let me place my love on

your pain;

use it as dressing

wrapped round,

lips pressed down

to quit

your silent screams.

Shhh, poor dumb mouths...

I have heard you.
