M Loves Truth

I don’t understand
I don’t listen
I don’t have empathy
I done care
I only do what I want
These words are my loves truth
These words have become my world
This world is now my truth
When did the light stop coming to our hearts

Unsaid

I am a resevoir
of the unspoken -
words too costly
and thoughts too dear -
so silence,
the everpresent
unchanging
melody
that scores my life.
Where is the other end
of the broken
whistle on the wind?
What fragment lies beyond
earshot, or whisper lost
in a restless sigh?
Say the right words then,
say the right words -
(oh god, say anything
at all, but)
don’t let
the mute thunder
of a resistant heart
win the day.

Long-Distance Melodies

there are too many words that we can say
spoken over long-distance melodies
casual greetings turn to breathless goodbyes 
while you ponder your heart wanders

forgiveness spread thick like honey on bread
washed down with truth and reasoning
for what you put in and I got out
zero credits in that account

there are too many words that we can say
spoken over long-distance melodies
a call that drops without return
text open to interpretation

Beauty

I could say she’s very lovely
Her complexion as smooth as silk
There’s no doubt in its verity
but she’s of a different ilk.
No words can express her beauty
To try would be a futile whim
The words would be a blaspheme-
To parrot them would be a sin.
Frenchmen would say vous êtes beau
A hackneyed phrase she heard before;
Italians, siete bello
Same old phrase from a different shore.
The fact is, her” beauty is truth”-
An ephemeral time of youth.
