Silent Conversations

The right words fall on me as soon as the conversation has ended

Whenever I’m with you

I think it’s because

Whenever we talk

You’re conversing with 3 people

HIM

            I really like her.

MY HEART

            I really like you.

HIM

            We kissed.

MY HEAD

            Why aren’t you kissing me?

HIM

            I think I’m going to try and be casual.

ME

            She doesn’t seem too serious about anything.

MY HEAD

            You should be with someone serious.

MY HEART

            You should be with me.

I think I can never tell you how I feel

Because I don’t know how to scream over so many voices

But I like the way you smile a lot

Especially the one you make when you’re having these private moments

I like how sometimes I can get you to share them with me

I like how you look good with both your glasses on and off

How somehow listening to you talk about someone else

Makes me fall harder

I like that neither of us make sense

But we make something

Even if it’s just silence.
