he mouths
I love you
into the darkness
there is no sound
there is no breath
even
there is only the
silent
movement of his bitten lips
there is only the
voiceless
cry of his noiseless prayer
I love you
everynight
I love you
he calls the dream that
can not does not will not
answer
and yet
she hears
Yes
she hears
Everynight
she hears
