Untitled

If words could speak every room on earth would shake 
With echoing whispered voices and no breaks in between 
You would think that a breath would taken 

Secrets and lies reveled and let truth be no longer concealed
Living in a generation full of mistrust and assumptions
Ignoring certain possibilities just to linger on the moments of numbness

Filling the smiles and weighing them with weight to face them downward
Through the air it slowly becomes polluted with the harmful discoveries
Lights are dimmed so the shadows can be no longer be visible 

Darkness is no longer ceases but now only commences
For not too long ago the world was full of **** and unspeakings 
That was said to be meant for safety reasons

To protect broken hearts and create friendships and some more beyond
To go past a greeting or the acceptance a wave
But why?
