Those Things I’ve Never Told You

My lover has gone…

Things I’ve never told you… Those mute gems Lie in my throat;

Buried treasure Abandoned Until the moment You leave,

They burst From my mouth; A jeweled galaxy Of phrases Flying Toward the face That has gone…

Things I’ve never Told you… As the last sliver Of your face Dips into the Pocket of night,

The silver slipper Of the moon Dances Without a partner, The stars Blink back their tears,

And the tide rises In my eyes.
