Line Of Silence

A luminous, endless circle,
that icy pool with a noodle to hold.

An entwined reflection,
you can’t see where either one ends.

A heart made permanent with a sharpie,
love letters held inside a shadow box.

An irregular coffee stain on an old table,
we made a mess of lust that morning. 

Finishing a sentence with no words,
enjoying an agreeable line of silence.

Little things, an incredible shape,
the outline of devotion.
