Unwritten

The poem unwritten          
     
are the kisses we missed        
when fear        
meets pen and paper        
ink unspilled          
tongue untwisted          
as mind retracts in doubt        
         
         
Overthinking        
over-processing        
brain strain exercise          
         
         
Hands we couldn't hold        
playing this game        
of love-rhyme-romance        
         
         
Prospecting          
your thoughts and mine        
which words to choose          
what rhetoric device          
         
         
Reading lips        
eachother's gaze        
where to place          
our story that behold        
         
         
A thousand metaphors        
hun-dread analogies          
they curve within your lines        
         
         
Hapless attempts          
to weave clever retorts        
in-between          
every other sentence          
         
         
Digging our heads        
in a bag of letters          
we try to spell        
the places we went        
         
         
Connecting pieces        
finding every taste          
and color we wore          
         
         
together          
we wrote    
without notes on paper    
         
The poem unwritten
