No Words To Say

when I speak of you,   I need not the ways       of written words-         each syllable counts           for nothing when your             voice seems unheard.   when I think of you,       I need not the thoughts         of wonder and hope-             for they only disappoint               down that journey of                   a slippery slope.   when I need you,       I crave only moments         of diminished things-             cuz' when the dusk               settles in eventide                   only the raven sings.   when I dream of you,       I dream not of photos         of happy times-           for when our verses are               written, seems like                 nothing seems to rhyme.           oh beloved, when you look at me that way,           there are no actions portrayed, no words to say-           and as the freedom of words condemn my heart,           it seems that it is finally the time that we part. fictional write July 28th, 2017
