I’m lost
in the unaltered silence
of empty words
Pouring from your mouth
poisoning my soul
Uttering’s
hollow, burning with intention
wrapped in gingersnap dressings
may go down easier
but leave a bitter aftertaste
in my heart
Tenderly acidic
rolling off your lips
Meant to warm the skin
they char, with missed fervor
Meaningless
if meaning ever existed
Now tumbling
into the cavern
that consumes a chest
Once full of life
lost
in the unaltered silence
of empty words
