Poems
Oct 2011
checkmate
such heavy silence
the ticking of the clock
with hands left to idle
as mouths refuse to talk
a shift tempts my statue
as principle keeps me stone
with eyes that refuse to meet
how do we know we're not alone?
such a heavy silence
though I know your thoughts are loud
I, too, have words which wish to tumble
but we both own hearts too proud
