Yes?

Day 20

Your eyes seem to do a lot of talking

Then why the silence?

When you do speak

Why do you not say what you mean?

One thought on “Yes?

  1. I speak plainly, I say.
    But, what do I really know, anyway?
    I may hope to be understood by tomorrow
    while speaking only in metaphors, today.

    [Yea, I don’t write great poetry on the fly.]

    I thought my mouth did speak
    When, you say, it was just my eyes.
    Words did not come easily
    With your hair blacking out the sky.
    Your brown skin silenced my emotion
    Like the earth absorbing the sea.
    Your smile stole everything else,
    Leaving me speechless and warm as can be.
