Sonnet of the soft spoken
Words fall from your tongue like syrup
You move your mouth but the words don’t reach
I notice your glass, bright like peach
Story continues below advertisement
Trying to start a conversation, but it just don’t stir up
Through ups and downs I want you to stay up
Through pain and fire your words will always breach
The hardest of hearts you’ll always teach
That with a little softness, anybody can grow up
And leave that hard shell behind
Still glossy like the sun your lips pure
The words that aren’t said, will always leave you broken
When all is lost and you think meaning is hard to find
Just let the words fall, let them reassure
That no matter how hard, words are soft spoken
