Without Words

Without Words

You wait 

without words
after opening my heart
expansive moments 

Finally, with purpose 
gazing up into your eyes

I try to tell you

without words

Sometimes when we say goodbye

I apologize

in silence
for the words

no one should have to hear 
I do not say them

I am sorry, I am sorry,

I am sorry

Resting my head against your warmth
the vibration of your voice fills my body
breathing your laughter as tears threaten
I try to tell you

without words
