Something Whispers To Me - For You

something whispers to me
during the awkward silences
packets of light escape your mouth

I don't know which way they go
so don't ask me to lead the way
i'm trying to find what keeps loosing me

moving through the silence
through the city
we look and shop and laugh

but never see

to be so close

an awkward silence precedes the whispering
I open all the windows
I open all the doors
