Silence
She walks slowly
and stares straight ahead
you don’t know
what’s wrong
or right
about her
Silence
Her eyes stare at nothing
won’t meet your eyes
until you meet hers
then she won’t let go
Her words
are urgent whispers
lies that stumble over each other
on the way from her mouth
You can’t forget her
her beauty is deadly
You can’t love her
you can’t hate her
you’re always in between
and crying
She’s murdered millions
yet everyone wants her
they’re all awed
by the beauty
she holds
She isn’t threatening
until you become obsessed with her
When you get in too far
you try to run
fill the space with words to hide behind
but there’s no escape
from the fate
you’ve sought out
You’ll forget why you wanted her
and finally give in
to her
her eyes are as seductive
as the night she lives
She’s not kind
she’ll mess
with your mind
She can save your life
or end it
Silence
