a war of silence <br />you trap words <br />smugly holding them hostage <br />behind your crocodile smile <br />attention I draw <br />is always negative <br />you make me question <br />if I actually exist. <br />why would you ignore me, <br />the one you are supposed to love? <br />silence is the sound I hear, <br />words frozen <br /> in the space between us <br />and I am languishing <br />in a silent movie <br />I call my lifemare.<br /><br />shannon wright<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-war-of-silence/
