a strange burden - v2

the light upon the breathe
that moved between us
there was no space left to hide in

barefoot on the slate
slick with rain
wet with a feeling that lacked a name yet
as it tickled on my lips
before turning to words

serenely sowing seeds of petals
that grew into the whisper of words
trembling before the ear
the truth an echo in the silence
there was a marriage in this moment
