i will breathe softly
softly against your skin
all the words i'm too afraid to say out loud
because i am a coward with expectations and
without promises
"stay" and
"today i love you with all my heart"
they will not reach your ears
but i will mumble them past your lips
and growl them against the arch of your spine
and let them settle into the dips made by your collar bones
if i whisper
if i'm silent
if i scream it
will you hear me
and will you understand
?
if i whisper
if i'm silent
if i scream it
will you hear me
and will you understand
?
