Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god

Speech To Me

I am waiting for the voice
To mangle out words and
For teeth to stab meaning
Into the presence.
I wait for something that doesn't exist,
Your decency, a trick.
I'm indecisive and suicidal,
You can bring me down to earth,
Let me stay awhile in the comfort
Of your promises before
Shucking me out of existence.
I asked too much, and now,
I'm the one without a voice.
I no longer can speak my mind,
Since I don't even think I have one.
