Golden pens bow in shame
between my anxious fingers.
Flowerish papers curl and hide
under my palms, blushing.
Words scatter and disappear
once it's clear of whom I'm writing:
You!
Nothing seems enough to be
addressed to you, love...
You cracked the shell slowly
then brought it down in pieces.
You laid your eyes upon skin
and entirely stopped its bleeding.
You grazed the cheek lovingly
so all fear of past evaporated.
Yet my hand stands idle
lost for words to describe you...
And I hide behind the excuse of:
writers' block!
So lame and yet so true...
in your respect.
No words can ever express:
What you mean to me.
What you really are.
How you make me feel.
But guess at the end it's just the way
you love me
that makes us what we are...
