again

I want to tell her
that I have no words.
There are no words
that can change anything.

I want to tell her
that my lack of speech
is because I know
platitudes fall on deaf ears
and that I am torn apart
inside
too.

I want to teach
her to speak
without words
with her body
I want to ask her
with my own
let me heal you,
heal myself
tonight.

I have no spoken words.
