Whisper words to household saints
Hands pressed, lips closed
We couldn't share them
The words that we couldn't say
Hiding in corners, shadows evade
Sitting on the shelf praying today
Tear and break them
The words that we couldn't say
Games played, in the darkness
Fools we both were that day
Confess it's too late
The words that we couldn't say
Mistakes littering the tile floor
Glittering shards that impale us
Time to end this
The words I just have said

Confess it's too late
