The Fight

Daggers
Still
Slow
Pause
Static air.
No room
Because
Of the emptiness
There that engulfs us;
Sucks the air
From every lung
That ever breathed a whispered song.

Screaming still;
Shrieks joy
And fulfillment-

But your wordless
Knife
Cuts out the vocal chords
Of a shallow fight;

And anger rages

Behind your eyes-
Like wildfire;

What a vicious
Flame
Your silence
Ignites.
