january 27th

by Barbara Griffith

standing in january nightfall
the air is choking
keeping the words down deep
burried down deep from you

hands touch, fingers entwine
whispers in your ear
soft sweet I love you
I love you I love you

stumbling over words tripping
falling over and over
half-formed thoughts find solace
only in I love you, too

Oh the exquisit torture of the unknown and possibly unrequited love...well captured.
