Unspoken
LaToya Taylor Oct 2013
UNSPOKEN
Unspoken words from empty promises; Gullible truths from more lies of his
Walking thin lines of faith vs. fantasy, The more I try to believe the more you hurt me
How could I be so stupid to fall for your tricks?  Time and time I listen just to regret
“Follow your mind, your logic is fool proof, You’ve heard this before he’ll just hurt you.”
“This time is different, he swears it, I feel it.  Never mind the past 7 years, I’m not giving up yet!”
I argue with myself unsure of which way to go, Is it time to give this up, if not, how do I know
Unspoken pleads to just love me unconditionally
Unspoken apologies from argument never meant to be
Unspoken feelings of pain and mistrust
Unspoken emotions and thoughts between the two of us
You ever feel trapped between what’s right and what’s wrong?  
Then someone asks the rhetorical question, “Baby what’s wrong?”  
For starters after 7 years this is not where we should be.
You know me, you know what you did, you know what the hell’s wrong with me!
Unspoken resolutions from arguments of long ago
Deep rooted pain from decisions you made that still bring me sorrow
The right thing go do is to try to forgive you and simply be happy,
The wrong is so much easier - lash out, get even and truly feel happy
But I’ll pray to God and just one more time try to make this work again
I’ll decide to forgive, close my eyes and keep these feeling of doubt, unspoken
Words unspoken 
I have left many words unspoken for the simple reason I never thought they'd need to be said
Every picture is worth a thousand words and every second I spend with you is a picture
Imagine if had said every word I could to you 
Imagine what I would say if I say I love you know what would I say if I could speak 1 thousand words for every second I'm with you 
A new poem every second
A new album every minute
A new feeling 
Haven't you ever left words unspoken that you wish you could say 
What about those half sentences you start and never finish
What about when you go to say something and end with nevermind
What about those texts you send that say can I ask something and instead of asking the real question you ask one you already know the answer to 
What about
What about
His words unspoken
My words unspoken
Their words unspoken
Everyone has them but only I wish I could tell you mine as badly as I wish I could 
Because every word unspoken is jump I never took

the unspoken word of life to will **** you, the unspoken words that hurt you like no other, the unspoken words have pain along the side of my heart, the unspoken words have pain that no man should endure, the unspoken words have point at the end of it, the unspoken words hold a life time of scars.
