Love's Dark Light

I love you much, Dear
     Too much to say well.
     Wordless love, smiles
     From silence; no sound
     Assails its dark depth.

Love's best blooms rise
Through quiet space
Roots stealing down
Around the heart.

     The fire burns
     Bright, alone
     Warm, unseen.

Heat flows
Light spreads
  
     Sighs.
