The Darkness

The Darkness

The darkness with all the lights off

won’t cover me up and the words

I want to say to you.

Even if I’m inches from your lips,

the air I breathe into you won’t tell you either.

I can hear the silence rooting for me to do it.

My chest is sitting on my heart.

The words, so big, they can barely make it

through the lungs catching my breath.

Your kisses are coaxing my words to come out.

To let you know I like you.
They tell you, I like you.

...

Sparkle&Shine.
