Without a Word

When words meant nothing,

Stars did blanket the skies

And love did silently sing

Of the sparkles in your starry eyes

The dew-drops gently drooped

Of dreams beneath dreamy lashes,

My heart crashed on your shores

Like moonlit wave still crashes,

Still,

My musics were still.

And with every ripple of your smiles,

With every tiny steps through the isles,

My words you would kill.

My emotions you would feel,

But I could not release the truth.

What you conveyed stood still,

Yet with each passing silence,

My truth has begged for your absence.
