Silence for Always Permanent
1 min readDec 24, 2018
Silence speaks for the man and woman.
Touch,
hold,
hug,
glare,
lift,
tickle;
all to make stable
the certainty of togetherness.
Their eyes establish the flutters
of sensations.
Fingertips meet fingertips.
A revival of the lake
and ecstatic twilight
lure the couple
onto the ocean floor
where a proud light
keeps their silence
for always permanent.
