[if we could, we would]

if we could, we would
tell each other our secrets
in the soft glares connecting
all our word pools together
unspoken but said
in the footsteps we make
in our goings and walks
down the stairs
down the road

when we see the secrets
unspoken but said
in the way we close our doors
in the way we shut our eyes
in the way we run away
before i ever approached
before i ever looked
before i ever tried

to see the secrets
unspoken but said
behind closed mouths
drowning somewhere
in our minds.
