***
Impossible to measure,
Impossible to quantify,
The silence
In which I sit,
By which I’m fossilised,
Smelling the may bells,
Thinking of you
Unbuttoning your shirt,
Unbuttoning your heart.
The silence
In which I feel a sudden need
To touch each millimetre
Of your skin.
The silence
Of zero sun,
The silence
To be heard and seen,
The silence
In which
I
dream-by-dream
compose you
as the musician his best song,
as the painter lost in his oils…
