valentine i have always failed at putting precisely into words the whys and hows of loving you there are no sounds sprung out my mouth, no thoughts abuzzing to tell me what the pages remain ever empty i know it is there it beats inside me with my pulse the blood flowed to meet my cheeks the scar of you imprinted in me the scent of you emblazoned in my memory knowing you has been like knowing myself yet with mystery always the mystery i cannot say it i know not how to speak it my hands remain open, waiting for the words of you, i know only how to love you it is in my breath in my every step in my belly swollen and emptied again the boys run all about the house, their faces your face, i know only your taste, your touch, the feel of your skin on my skin, every moment of our lifetime together, the sound of you in the kitchen the murmurs you make in your sleep i know you i know you - and i love you and love you and love you, without the words, without a sound made or a notion whispered, it is here, written all over me, and will last until you and i are but dust, words no longer necessary. posted by anna kiss @ 2/14/2007 01:47:00 PM |
