Unspoken
The despair in her eyes, as he said goodbye, left her in fear of new beginnings
Being blocked by their sealed lips, so nothing could slip up
Left the unspoken truth hanging from the tip of their tongues
While she faded in the crowd, he walked away
People passed by as she veiled her eyes, for there were tears to hide
Her thoughts were cluttered; she just wanted to be set free
The unspoken words in her head are ready to expose who she is
Her secretes, her ideas, her judgments, her biases
Everything that she kept from the world may now come to an end
Things she’s not proud of, secretes from the society, broken promises, you name it, it’s all stored away
As the butterflies were released, emptiness was felt
Everyone around her were parting ways, leaving her stranded in open space
No point in wasting time on speaking, if no one was there to witness
Therefore, she held on to the words that were left unsaid
