Soft Lips, 

My mouth is my lifeline
Sending my words where I cannot go
My bridge across the fence
Connecting me to the ones I adore
Slick words and smooth talk
All the way up the ladder
Leading straight down to the trenches
Ending up where words are not enough
With nothing but a voice
Studying His wor
Leaving nonsense behind unspoken
My guarded tongue
Dissolving chaos in silence
Training my mind
Restoring my peace
Embracing my second chance
To kiss his little face
Sweet nothings to the man I love
Beaming at the boy I cherish
Hardened criminal
Healed by softened lips
