Written

There

On the shores of thy hand

Not on your heart

Nor mind

But in your face

 

To say

To express

With no words

With no sound

 

Only seen

In the light that shines

Behind your eyes

In the brightness

Of your smile

 

The touch

The graze

Of your hand

Reveals it

 

A goodbye without

A hello

A wordless greet

An end – a beginning

The memory of a lifetime

 

From there

And then

 

And on
