Current Bun
silence
it penetrates the relationship
silence
never discussing
what he did to you
but…
that is alright
just pretend it did not happen
and hold it in so tight
you never know –
it might just go away
but it is always there
plaguing your night
and adding to your despair
silence
no exchange
no shouting
absolute blindness
so very binding
cups of tea and slices of cake
on nicely patterned saucers
and nicely patterned plates
maybe some current buns
with undercurrents of hate
silence
