The Light in My Darkness

Every inhibition and
Black thought
I have 

Wearingly loses the ability 

To pirouette 

From my lips

And fails to bow 

Gracefully

Into your ears
The ones that not only 

Hear
But listen 

To everything that gives
And takes away from me 
Suddenly
The songs and laments of every
Sweet release 
Oh how these words
Die
They fade
They burn quickly

And the only ones that
Remain

Are the
Unspoken
But known
Words

That your eyes
Say

Author's Note

The way I feel when I stare into the love of my life's eyes is rather inexplicable, besides three words: I love you.
