Swords and Silence
'FIGHT,' your body yells,
'For I will not let you go'
It scares me, your fire glow
Your eyes a hell spell
(Please rebel! Rebel!)
I respond, SILENCE
Your volume goes up a pitch
Your eyes stab me with BITCH, BITCH
The air rings violence
(It's immense, IMMENSE!)
Hear my silent plea
Take from me your wounding swords
Go in my mind, take my words
If not let me be
(Please see me. See me.)

(It's immense, IMMENSE!)

i like this a lot, especially the title...but how is she to go in your mind? how is she to see you when you don't show her your self?

the way i understand it, she is like fire and he is silence and by fire she hurts him, while he needs her to be soft and to understand him instead of fighting him. For her to go in his mind, means exactly that, to understand him without him having to say the words.
But that is just me and how i like to understand the poem, i suppose that is one of the beauties of poetry. To take a piece of it and make it your own.

Her anger was like fire and I didn't know how to deal with it so I would clam up

And that was part of the problem between her and I. She was vocal and I was not.
