Silent Letters
In the depths of her words I dwell
every inflection and punctuation
accenting upon another emotion
but it's between the lines I rest
not understanding I confess
silent letters gnawing at my brain
maddening and driving me insane
They're out in the open
but hidden beneath
the cadence the dialect
making me a wreck
spell it out for me
I cant stress it enough
simply and slowly
leave out the fluff
Roll away with your r's
and dot those pretty little eyes
whisper sweet harmonies
with a melodic reprise
every inflection and punctuation
accenting upon another emotion
but it's between the lines I rest
not understanding I confess
silent letters gnawing at my brain
maddening and driving me insane
They're out in the open
but hidden beneath
the cadence the dialect
making me a wreck
spell it out for me
I cant stress it enough
simply and slowly
leave out the fluff
Roll away with your r's
and dot those pretty little eyes
whisper sweet harmonies
with a melodic reprise

Beautiful and heartfelt, it reminds me so much of my Unwritten Letter, we could've combined and called it a collaboration :)
Sometimes words fail us dont they, its so hard to express when there's emotional investment.

I love this piece.
The unspoken thoughts, which drive us bonkers.
You captured the feeling perfectly.
Amazing expression and delivery.

This one was written from a place of wonder born from Nature's mysteries instilled within a woman. It is the space between the words and lines that hold the most meaning, it's that space and silence that knits language.
