If Lips Could Speak

Posted by Joy Nibbs on March 1, 2019February 28, 2019

Rooms have been painted with silence

Forgotten words left unsaid

We are but the dead

The living like our regrets

Have gone on without us

Mercy, we pray

On mornings when the sun refuses to show its face

Our tears have never been so sweet

If lips could tell a tale so true

I would give my lips

Just to say I love you
