The Silence Between Us
The silence between us is as dense my bronchitis
I try to deny this but I feel so tense all I can do is hold my tongue
The phlegm just boils in my dead black rotting lung
The silence between us
Freezes sharp words
Seizes the violence
That screams unheard
You smile and act so pleased to see me at first
Do you assume I forgot?
How vile you act, no slut I have learnt
So I say nothing
This is when you used to talk shit
But what I think must have finally sinked
Into to that thick skull that’s always so full of
