I have broken the rules
Of social engagement
Left the loud bravado
Of storytelling behind
Explaining drains me
Of all the colors
I have used to paint me
In the reflection of your eyes
I prefer to sit here silently
Next to an open window
And let the words
Fall naturally out of my head
Until it is empty
And love becomes a simpleton
