Part I – The Longing

The Voice Beneath My Name

Poem 5Part I

I called to You with all my names until my mouth became tired air. Then the call kept sounding without a caller. What spoke was not a voice. What listened had no ears. A single stillness moved as both, like a wave knowing it is water. Beloved, write me on the wind, and let the letters fall apart. In their scattering I will learn how meaning shines without words.
