Words

Spoken words

I know them not

Never heard any

Never said any

Too quiet here

In my world without

Any spoken words

I see your face

Animated with your words

See your lips move

While your eyes twirl

And hands weave the air

But I never hear

Your spoken words

In front of the mirror

I imitate your flow

Move my lips

And roll my tongue

All in front of the mirror

Where no one hears

My spoken words

Because before you

My hands are my lips

Dancing in the air

To the music

Only I can hear

And the lyrics are

All of my unspoken words

Like clues scattered

In naked sight

I read your secrets

Written in unshed tears

And fake smiles

For I listen, not hear

Every. Unspoken. Word.
