Quieting

Melts away if you keep your mouth shut
And the heart will slow
The mind will soften
As the lips close.

Easier that way,
Easier to not take
So they can't take away
What you've clawed for your life.

Their stares shoot through
To the raw quick, and you think
If you don't look back
Maybe they aren't really there.

But they are.
Just keep closed.
And calm.
