wordless are the lips
that once used to spill
poetic verses
to your waiting ears
as the night deepens
just like the kiss
that intimate bliss
shared by two hearts
under the watching stars
that cradle the moon
wrapped in the shadows
of clouds passing by
wordless are the lips
that once whispered your name
like a prayer
reverent in nature
as eyes meet eyes
gazing with longing
for that single moment
for our worlds to collide
sparks igniting
the hunger that burns
from within
wanting to be free
wordless are the lips
as thoughts no longer form
in the mind as your image
no longer calls it home
just like the heart
that you used to hold
now bereft of the warmth
your loving hands gave
until the time you chose
to leave this soul in tears
watching your shadow
in silence disappear
