The Things We Can’t Say
A Poem
The things we
Can’t Say
Often scream
The loudest
A silence that
Says so
Much
While saying
Nothing at all.
Pain,
Hidden behind
Smiles
And I’m Okay’s
Even in the moments
You clearly are
Not.
The things
We can’t Say
Often scream
In the silence
Things that
Words
Cannot begin
To cover
The pain beneath
Layers of
Smiles
And I’m
Okay’s.
The things
We cannot say
Speak louder
Than the things
We say.
