These words that are left unsaid;
An anger that lingers in the air...
Even unseen, the tension feels thick
Invisible fingers that squeeze around my throat
And the words that seep into my mind
The little doubts pushing their way
Further and further into my heart
Fear and insecurity, hand in hand
They dance with glee upon fragile ground.
Trust like fine-spun webs, they break
Easily like new ice
I teeter dangerously on the tight rope
Hostile faces on either side, confrontational
If I fall, where do I go...
Who will catch me?
