Love Whisperings (For M)



    Love Whisperings

    They say pain is an untold language,
    only to be borne,
    like a chip on your shoulder
    embedded in the blood.
    Born out of our bond,
    it does not dissolve
    in well-meaning questions or concerned glances.
    It smells benignly,
    and sits comfortably in its own forcefield
    -- it is all gravity here.
    It keeps me awake
    as I try to make sense of the stars.
    You are my clarity,  the beginning
    of my soul.
    You hold all our worlds together,
    your laughter is the sound of all that is right
    in this world.
