In your silence
You say all the things
I never wanted you to say.
Against all odds,
I've held out hope
That,
Someday, Somehow,
we might be friends.
That you might forgive
Whatever mistake I made.
Yet you greet me with silence
And so here I sit
Alone again
With my broken heart.

I was actually thinking of writing something romantic when I let my mind run away with the line "In your silence.." I guess my heart just wasn't in it tonight.
