our love falls upon a silent poem

our love falls upon a silent poem

a stillness never found in nature

the flow of flower as the wind sweeps between the petals

an ocean of color bathed in dew

our love falls upon the words of the mute

a knowing eye that watches a lullaby

sit upon a parchment unsung

our love falls upon the loyal earth

as we meditate upon the grave

a brilliant painting hung within a darkened room upon a wall behind a shadow

our love falls like candy from the grip of a corpse

our love falls upon a child in heaven, waiting unwanted for a womb

our love falls upon a definition of philosophy, an unimagined fact, and unknowable truth

our love falls upon a breath of fresh death

our love falls upon a history of lies, wrapped in a smile, crooked like the teeth of wild, broken like the teeth of the tamed

our love falls upon a bank of empty boxes

our love falls upon a cold pot and a frigid bed,
a grey temple and a colorless Church,

a soft kiss that misses the lips entire,
falling on a pillow of distance

our love falls as deeply as i fell for you,
a pit within a pit within my heart
