Helpless

The words came from your lips
Like a jigsaw
Like a buzzsaw
A puzzle I could not figure out
And cut through skin and bone
Your words weigh more than the silence
Yet say less
The cat has stolen your tongue
And holds on for dear life
Praying that when you release
The truth pours from you
Like tears from eyes
But it is never that easy
No
Your beauty is confined in literary devices
Held up in consciousness
You have stolen my heart
With a breath
And a revelation
