Silent Romance

by Sophie Lake McGhee
(Pine Plains, NY)

Can you hear me?
I'm talking with my eyes
The silence is loud
And it tells no lies

This game I'm playing
Is a game for two
But I'll only keep playing
If the prize is you

Life isn't black and white
I'm always turning red
You are the only thing
Running threw my head

So say no words
Words create lies
They can't speak the truth
Said with the eyes
