Speechless: A love poem.
November 27, 2007
A faint whisper reaches across the stretches of eternity,
softly spoken words gathered in one accord fall silently
back to earth, warming us with their splendor and light.
Speechless, I behold the beauty of it’s echo;
and I know in this moment I’m more alive than I’ll ever be.
The warmth of your grace which shines from your eyes
devours my entire being, and in this perfect solace I feel
as though our hearts and souls entwine; if only for a moment
two become one, and nothing known is of any significance.
Speechless, I breathe everything that you are into me;
and I know that this fire inside could never be pacified.
Rationality becomes subjacent to your magnificence,
my burdening anchor of doubts lifted without effort –
I behold a mystery, that in your softly spoken words you
bear the key which unbinds my every last burden.
Speechless, I find myself in the midst of overwhelming desire;
and I know that I could never need anything as much as I need you.
"The more a man's tongue flees verbosity, the more his intellect is illumined so as to be able to discern deep thoughts; for the rational intellect is befuddled by verbosity."
