The flicker of your pupils
As you dart your eyes away
I'm sorry I made you uncomfortable
I'll be more careful with what I say
The tightness in your straight face
When you've ignored me once more
I swear I don't know what I'm saying
My judgement is poor
The fidgeting of your fingers
Tap tapping or scratching
I'll think before I talk
These words are something I'll start catching
Stiff body directed away from me
With more important priorities at heart
I knew it was wrong to try to speak
I knew from the start
