hear my silence
bring up
some words upstairs
i shall be waiting
there each night
seedlings these grow
the words
they are vines
holding on
to me and you
as do our dreams
they too ascend
into the blue sky
the moon won't
tell a thing
it is too lulled
into melodies
of words etched
over the dark pillars
and my mind is on you
and my emotions
oh, don't you remember
last time you took 'em
with you
saying you needed 'em
to weave your pearls of memoirs
hence, i'd be waiting
for your string of words,
upstairs, in silence indeed!
