Words Unspoken

You didn’t say what you wanted,
And I didn’t wait around,
Your silence was an indication of words you couldn’t vocalise,
I was impatient for their exit, so I took mine,
Now, weeks and unanswered texts later,
You awake from your slumber,
Disappointed with the news that I am no longer patiently waiting,
But instead of thinking back to your words unspoken,
You catch up to me upset that I have chosen to move on,
The spiral of unexpressed emotions and missed opportunities,
Has hit you in the chest,
Yet you throw words at me as if I have been untrue or deceitful,
When in fact it appears as though our communication was skewed,
Perhaps doomed from the start, we may never know,
Because of the words unspoken,
