Let the wind in your mouth
Rearrange the words
Across your tongue
Behind your teeth
Begging to be spoken
Patience on the tip of your tongue
Wears thin
From saying too little
Lips tremble with uncertainty
Lest the words be misunderstood
Like friendly kisses mistaken for love
That never was the intention
Now hot breath carries them
To their intended destination
A deaf ear does not accept
The truth it hears
But turns the words inside out
To please itself with my message

Merry, not only do you capture the moment, but also the nuances and delicacies of the the dynamic operating, hinting at all that has led up to this moment and what will play out. Just exquisite.
A lovely reworking of 'on deaf ears'.
