I Will Be Silent Poem by Prince ....

I stand here watching
Listening to you talk
Noticing how you are oblivious
To your hand taking mine.
I look at your eyes
All filled with sorrow
And I am tempted
To take it away
But I made my own rule
To not mess with people
So I will stay silent
As I watch you cry.

I lay there thinking
wishing you would talk
Wishing you would know
That you took my hand
I wish you would look me in the eyes
All filled with sorrow
And you attempted
to take it away
You said you wouldn't stay
You were tired of messing with people,
You said you didnt want to
Break my heart
To late
But I made my rule
not to mess with other people
so I will be silent
As I watch you say goodbye
Goodbye
