till all falls silent

[mousey1]

splayfooted reassurance in acts of love
sturdy in all knowledge that no matter what
such as this grows strong when nurtured above
all others

kept alone
saving herself for the special cause
dignifying her repose
undoubting

crept through
unwanted
benign in truth
undaunted

acceptance
without agenda
without asking why
just lie there

I could paint a smile
loop double entendres
speak in tongues
sigh caresses
mumble pleasures
through parted lips
possessing you

words may signify
but a humble measure
of that hidden inside
faded truth

naked feeling is left to the imagination
and the quiet brooding
of the heart as it beats loves boastful song

unguarded

without guile

till all

falls

silent
