You know what they say.
"Don't let the silence do the talking"
But how can that be,
When it screams out.
Beating you into the shell.

I shot for the stars,
But I missed.
Reality drowned them out.
Now I float,
Desperate to get back.

I was scared to meet her.
Didn't want to change what we had,
Staying up until the morning.
With a stupid grin she always caused,
But only I could see.

Curiosity killed the cat.

With a smile I bought her flowers,
And with a smile I gave them.
But that was it,
Just a smile.
And no words could come out.

Curiosity killed the cat.

We sat there in silence,
So much to say, yet nothing said.
Silence stayed until I left,
But its changed what we had.
This is why I was scared.

Curiosity killed me.

Silence like a cancer grows,
Invading into life as tissue.
Growing, growing.
Until nothing, but it, remains.

I am not sure anymore
How to tread the ground with you
It's like walking on broken glass
The shards embed deep

But it's not the glass that hurt so bad
More so the wounds your words inflict.

She is perfect to me,
Being, smile and mind sublime.
Why would she want me.
