speech leech
I have 4ooo feelings
welling inside me
expressionless 
and coughing 
just don't see how writing
could do justice 
these emotions
 
words are quick
and easy
we throw them around 
recklessly
in attempt to communicate
we complicate
but what of a smile?
simply
solitary
where no arrangement of consonants
and vowels
parts it's lips 
obscuring it's honesty 
and innocence   
I've lost them
those linguistic little instruments 
lost the will to manipulate 
my spirit
into grammatical framework
to justify my smiles
with reasons why they exist
may have been obvious
in the growing silence
I've been feeling anyway
that it's not how or what we say 
it's what is never said 
that leaves the deepest impression
