Speak

 Everything you said was the right thing to say
when your friend falls in love with you
and you don't feel the same
you always had a way with words
language was a dance you practiced and mastered
articulation: the rhythm you felt inside
there was never a need to keep a beat
because poems pour out of you every time you speak
and so it is with every fragment in my body that I ask you leave
because I cant help but love you
every time you speak
