Poet Tacito Poet Free verse

Maybe, I Love You

Inferno
Entry
Soul’s window

Liquid satin
Blanketing sin

Unintentional embrace
Spoken word
Spoken soft
Spoken
Whisper

Speechless

Longing

Longing
Tears
Held

Hold me

Hold me
As if God
Condemned our tomorrows
Suddenly

Ventricle screams
Smile rediscovered
Eyes unwrapped

Even after all these years

Rush
Waves
Crash

Song of infant
Church Bells

Desired

Discovery
This belief
That maybe

Just maybe…
