I once heard a
nothing man say
"Some words unspoken
can't be taken back"
And with that I was
taken back
back to word
a thought
a feeling
an emotion
Passed unspoken
'tween two people
taken back to things
passed unspoken
beyond speech
Things unspoken, back
when I was taken aback
by someones unspoken words
Things passed between us
In breaths
on looks
in thoughts sharred
that didn't need to be spoken
things known, not needing discussion
just known
not spoken
and they can never be
taken back
not by time
or by space
the death of a star
or the birth of a universe
can't take those things back
