to you

if you can't see by now

that this has all been for you,

then shame on me

and my silent tongue.

it seems the words for sunrise

have slipped and fallen away

and i do not know whether

they can ever be found.

truthfully,

these lost words

sit right before me,

but they are beyond my reach

and i just can't make them out.

i've strained

my eyes and arms

and yet,

the more i do,

the farther away they sound.

with each fading word

comes the fresh pain

of how they burn inside of me.

i do hope for a time

when i may be able

to carry these nearly spoken words,

though i do not know

if your sunrise

and mine

will ever grace the sky together.

so if you can see

and if you know that this is,

in the end,

all for you,

bless you and your silent tongue.

Very nice depiction of a struggle, both internally and how it manifests itself in relationships.
