[ After You Spilled Out How You Were Feeling ]
[ You Were Talking About How You Were Dealing ]

[ With Your Life ]
[ With Your Kids ]
[ & With Your Wife ]

[ What Almost Started A Second Of Violence ]
[ Was After You Really Talked To Your Friend From The Heart ]
[ Her Response ]
[ Her Reply ]
[ All That Was Said … Was Silence ]

[ Not A Single Word ]
[ Was Uttered ]
[ Or Heard ]

[ With You Thinking That She Had Been Your Best Friend Not
     Just For Years, But For Decades ]
[ When You Were A Much Younger Age ]

[ She Pushed You Through Some Of Your Hardest Years ]
[ You Have Held Her Up ]
[ When You Helped Her Face Her Fears ]

[ You Have Been Through Thick & Thin ]
[ When Things Were Not The Fashion ]
[ But Letting Her Know What (WAS IN) ]

[ When She Answered You With Silence, You Were Floored ]
[ You Wanted To Run To The Door ]

[ Except You Were In Your Own Home ]
[ Why She Did That, Will Never Be Known ]

[ You Could Not Bring Yourself To Open Your Mouth, To
    Talk ]
[ You Had Nothing, After You Balked ]

[ The Silence Was Deafening ]
[ The Silence Was Threatening ]

[ What To Do? ]
[ What To Do? ]
[ Right Now, You Don’t Know What To Do ]

[ So You Left ]
