Silence Speaks
Silence speaks sensually,
unhindered by a fickle tongue or misspoken word.
Her beauty transcends her muted world
of quietude and introspection.
And independent of sound
her body-language
expresses intimate, fledgling feelings;
despite having never heard laughter
or the sound of a human voice.
Her world widens with my touch:
As my kiss ignites the tactile flame of passion.
When words cease to exist:
two hearts communicate
in perfect, tranquil silence;
like synchronized swimmers in a river of time.
Others may doubt the strength of a love unspoken:
but they'd be wrong to do so.
For love is felt more oft than heard,
as it tiptoes silently between two halves
of a dually shared soul.
