Poem
We dance as I sing my song, your head resting on my chest, I look into your eyes as they fill with tears, tears of joy? Tears of pain? Are you happy or sad? Tears with meanings I’ll never know, As each strand of salted water stream down your face, You smile and for this, I love you. We shout with hate and angered voices, our faces red with frustration, Words of spite spat out with no hesitation, our fists clenched, and our eyes locked, I see the fear in you face like a thump to the pit of my stomach, I slump to my knees as my anger disappears like the mists of a fine rain, You take my hand, as I stare you take me in your arms, And for this, I love you. I touch your lips and feel your breath on my neck, I feel each and every curve with tender hands, Your soft skin against mine, I hold you tight and kiss you tenderly, As the moon shines through I see the reflection in your eyes, A glint of the woman you used to be and the woman you are, We look at each other for eternity, And for this, I love you. Your eyes are closed now, as we sit together hand in hand, Our feelings tucked away inside our souls, our mouths shut, and we say no words, We make no attempt to express the thoughts inside our minds, The TV flickers against a backdrop of darkness in a silent room, The rain thumps against the window in the cold hollow night, I hear your lips open as you breathe, I feel your heart pound, You tilt your head towards mine and whisper you love me Like a voice shattering a thousand silences, And for this, I love you to.
