Could You Know? (Free verse) by vamos_tuzos
Never satisfied with simple words and phrases
Desperately seeking any form of expression
That achieves some amount of understanding
Of complex emotions and sentiments.
Between the lines of the mind
And amongst the choruses of love
That are sung by the countless suitors
How are you to know mine surpass all?
If I were to tell you how I feel,
Could you see my eyes
And understand my soul?
Looking past the subtleties of human nature
Beyond the requirements of communication
And the limitations of our comprehension
Would you know me without the words I speak?
Could you listen to how I feel
And return the favour
To echo such doubts and security
Of unsatisfactory devices
To declare the undying love
Past through ages and through time
Through distances insurmountable physically
But so miniscule within?
Could you know that I love you
Without saying a word?
