Relief

My mouth is bound      
By unspoken words	
Refusal to allow	 
Emotions to be	 
Revealed
The danger of
My silence
Of unspoken words
Teases 
Flirts
With occasional
Mental escape
Endurance
Insurance
These lucid
Lies of truth
Fingerprint my 
Frustrated heart
Alone, yet
Not apart
From
Unspoken words
From 
Transparent relief
