The silence says it perfectly-
it communicates so accurately.
With our bodies
moving softly in the dark
to protect this simple nothingness.
In our shared silence,
everything feels said.
Words would devastate this moment.
Words would ***** it all, jumble up our meanings.
My mouth is too unholy for all the beautiful things i want to tell you.
This moment feels eternal, intimate and sweet
Do you feel like everything that needed to be said
is being said perfectly
by just the locking of our eyes?
The slight brush of skin on skin
which is all i can sense,
is so satisfying.
In the darkness all i can see is the outline of your lips
and i've discovered they're all i need to live.

This is why silence is sacred
but to you is this darkness only empty
is your mind screaming inside you?
I hope you're like me and you feel comfort
from the feeling that you don't exist in the dark.
Do you feel better when you cant see your arms?
Does the silence save you from your worries,
does it soothe your regrets?
I hope this perfect silence is shared,
instead of being an annoying emptiness
to your usually overwhelmed ears.
im so upset i had almost finished this poem and it was way better than any that ive done in a long time and the power went out and deleted it. this is just trying to be like the other one. D :
