Silent Tongue

Share with me this silence, my friend
And whatever-else-you-are-and-can-be.

There is much to be said in the language
Of fingers and tongues, breath and lips,

Where to utter even one word is sacrilege.
Speak to me thus.

Let us converse in ways that have
Failed expression for all time.

Let us make what words cannot,
Love.
