bite my tongue

I am concealed
Beneath these tattered jeans
And against this red and black wall
Blending so perfectly with this background

I wait
Wait to be found
Or wait to be forgotten
Close my eyes and hold my breath
I'll be dead within the hour and you'll be long gone

You speak
I'm speechless
Motionless and breathless
As you search beyond the hollow walls
Again and again until you pass right through me
I am nowhere and everywhere and you'll be giving up soon

You touch
Feel that place
You know so well
Makes me weak and wet
You wipe your fingers on my jeans
You still don't know and maybe you never did
Maybe you were never meant to see beyond simple grays
