Can the world stay silent
enough for me
to hear the sweet sound
of each time you breathe
Could one holy whisper
deliver and hide
each withered instance
of denial and pride
All your sweet words
only a picture
of how things once were
and all your sweet kisses
created to torture
the lone and depressed
self destructive from the pressure
the fear of no one
to hold you at night-
at night, where we once watched
the beauty of light
though i do wrong,
you never wronged me
my one truth, my you
my one and only
