Keeping

Quiet is so much more complicated now that I know you’re lying most of the time.

My mind wants to tell you off and not hesitate on the words you need to hear.

But it’s also apparent that what I do next won’t matter anyways.

So why bother with words?

My actions will speak louder, and no more will I hesitate to show you how I feel.

One day it will probably all come up, and it won’t be me who isn’t happy, and the truth will be out.

But, like many things in life, that may not happen because I have to be the bigger person every time.

But every time I keep my mouth shut is another time you think you’re getting away with things.

But I’m sure maybe one day you will need more help, and you could have pleased and fooled enough people who can help you.

Or maybe you will end up in a situation that ends with no help in sight because all those that cared for you burned those bridges for good.
