Cryptic words were spoken

My heart was lost

not broken.

Thoughts not heard

True meaning lost in translation

What is my soul saying?

Feel your pulse

Close your eyes

Listen for a word

Where or how or why

My oh my

Think of something clever to say

Don’t stumble over your tongue

fuck it

Move on and go your own way

Listen to the voices inside your head

Don’t fall asleep

Just because you lie in bed

Talk to me

Say something funny

Listen to what I cannot say.
