You told me I can tell you everything
Share anything with you
But what about my silence?
The tremor in my short responses
My sighs
At this, our last meeting
My eyes glistening
Just a tentative kiss on the side of your lips
As I close the door
To prevent you from seeing
from hearing
my heart breaking
The silence speaks for you
As I ask you to excuse
The awkwardness of
My non-goodbye.
