i believe there is something
unspoken
between us.

i believe it is magic.

we have torn ourselves apart
internally, but
kept straight faces
whenever we speak

we are civil.
we are appropriate.
we are professional.

but i believe there is something
unspoken

like a match
that is just lit
and flickers
gently

a cool breeze
and it will go out
or the right contact
and it will ignite

for you,
i have a fire

and if i could have one touch
of the hand that's
shown me everything
or the golden hair
of the goddess

it will ignite.

i believe there is something
unspoken
between us.

i believe it is magic.
