Speak, My Darling

RPM 2013 feat. Keith Landry guitar collab

there is a crack
in the concrete of our wall
where the sun creeps into all
of the dark things that are
hanging in the silence

even the wind
seems too afraid to come inside
like it may know the reason why
it’s been days since we have
met each other’s glances

bit by bit
stone by stone
these words unsaid
cut to the bone
please speak, my darling
even if it’s
just to say goodbye

it settles in
like the framework in the cold
what we’ve gained for what we sold
the painful labor of
maintaining the illusion

the edges warp
caught in the humid air of us
the tears that flew into the dust
when we both knew much better
than to seek forgiveness

bit by bit
stone by stone
these words unsaid
cut to the bone
please speak, my darling
even if it’s
just to say goodbye

a sort of hush
almost a still before the dawn
a bitter pill upon our tongues
and looks should kill this now
if only out of mercy

bit by bit
stone by stone
these words unsaid
cut to the bone
please speak, my darling
even if it’s
just to say goodbye
