Our Eyes Silent Speech

Our eyes silent speech

Warm, strong arms surround me entirely
Feeling so safe, snug, so easily
Talking all night gives me a fresh insight
To the mystery, uncovering that history
Words tripping over my lips and falling fast
But you’re there to catch every word
Hold onto this feeling, make it last

Time spent is short and sweet
Longing for time again we meet
Each moment, absorbing more
Your intelligence, your cheek, your ore
Wisdom, an age old
Please take my money, you have me sold
You fascinate me, incapacitate me
With those fresh eyes, no lies, you can see, so clearly

The world in all its darkness, its harshness
Not rose tinted specs getting you vexed
Not negativity, just the reality
Of what’s really going on, why it’s taking so long
To take down that wall, that was built so tall
Brick by brick they will fall
And you will see of me… all

Into your space, your comfort, your cave
I would resign myself and misbehave
Love making was sweet, passionate and raw
Lusts and urges to strong to ignore
Giving ourselves, one to another
Hidden depths we would seek to uncover
Laying in the stillness of ecstasy’s reach
No words to exchange, just our eyes silent speech

As soon as I read the title I knew it would be good. I was wrong. It's brilliant. (Sorry for sounding like Simon Cowell then). It's so sweet and genuine and you've worded it wonderfully. I love it.
