nameless words

Nameless words

There are nameless words that we choose not to speak
Lest they penetrate and mean more than they mean if spoken out loud
We keep them captive in our hearts and in our minds
Whilst they torment us daily until we release them under duress
When we speak by other means not words
When our facial expressions betray their presence
 When our eyes melt the common boundary of words
When unbidden sighs, groans, aches and laughter escape
When our language belies our words or silence
