Listen

I do not know how many times
I have tried to tell you—
tried to bring your lips to a close
so that you could listen
to the murmured words falling from mine,
strung together by my half conscious speech.
It’s late now
and I do not want to talk
but I cannot keep silent.
It is in those waves that we truly drown.
