“You don’t want to know.,” she says.
Her safe little way of skirting the issue.
“But I do.” I reply.
I’d rather hear the truth and be hurt
Than hear the lies.
Her sad eyes stare back.
No answer.
No words.
Her silence says it all.

lost in thought, found in words.

Nice poem. The silence does indeed speak volumes
