Mute by Default

I have learned to keep my lips sealed
Those unspoken words made their way into my dreams
They sometimes told lies
They sometimes mocked me
They sometimes threw a pity party

It is so easy to be a silent communicator
My hollow gaze from sunken eyes has told you my story
Let my words be few
The departed usually don’t make much sound
