unless you speak

--unless you speak--



Another hole 
in time 
             opens in my mind 
because  
        it's  
              still blank 
but you 
        distract then

I'll see you 
             somehow 

in a day             or two.

Unless you speak 
 
I'll not see 
            out of 
this fantasy.

I'm tired of the blank 
but                   anger 
                      fear 

keep me 
        here.
