Silence In Words!

I know words,
Big words,
And small words,
Long and short words,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words that tell a story,
Words that say sorry,
Words that made her feel sorry,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words that I could have used to say sorry,
Words that I could have used to tell her why,
Words that I could have used,
Yes, I know words

I know words,
Words I chose to use,
Words I wanted to use,
Words I didn’t use,
Words that failed me,
Words that chose to be silent,
And so we parted,
Amidst the silence of words.
