Don't Speak
inspired by a conversation I had with my daughter and a cat
This was inspired by something my daughter said that I misheard while we were walking around our neighborhood which is overrun with stray cats. First draft, so I will probably come back to it at some point.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
From the brief conversation we haven’t had
I think I might like you,
which says everything about me
and nothing about you.
I’m the kind of person
who can conjure a crush
out of wishful thinking
and thin air,
so if we ever talk,
try not to ruin
the excellent impression
your silence
has made.

Finally realizing I need to start acting like the main character in my own life. Writing helps me figure out where I keep losing the plot and giving away my spotlight. My story is a big mix of drama, comedy, tragedy, thriller, and, horror.
