to what you're hiding from me,
grudges held against foolish mistakes.
Your silence, like nails on a chalkboard,
terrifies me. It paralyzes me.
I feel poisoned, as hallucinations
begin to fade into my mind.
This absence of words is killing me.
Once your knight in shining armor,
all glass trophies I've won seem shattered
and held together by nothing but tape.
Shapeless, these thoughts hover about,
searching for something to hold onto.
If only you would speak to me,
I could grasp my roots again
and rise, a golem against the sunset.
Give me a chance to fail,
don't make me watch us both decay.
