I wanted to be redeemed
By the Silence, I do not know how to utter
With Honesty,
Trepidations and flee from treacherous
Archery game Tarnations.

I quipped my words back and fell to quiet,
Hoping you’d notice and I only knew
The Truth Bomb would drop itself
And maybe in a static-smile I would not see,
I’d know you’d get where I was coming from.

That leg of the conversation is over.
Now we move on;
You don’t have to say anything.
I just had to get it off my chest –
Now we understand each other.

You weren’t so upset.
I wasn’t so traumatized.
I needed time to heal, as you needed time to heal
From hearing the disparities of how low
A Dive could take,
When the day is diminished before the first sip
Of coffee even came to my lips.

I’m glad you were there for me.
Now it’s okay again,
Don’t Say Anything..
Let’s just keep going and see where
The conversation takes us!!!

-I love talking on the phone with you.-
-It’s like therapy, but better, because you’re my Friend.-
-And I don’t have to say anything, I know you only speak
With Empathy.-
