Words...Not Needed Here

Words....Not Needed Here
by Khari D. Hawke


What say you man of little word 
with eyes a-float on heaven's breath, 
of this hearts cries of joys unheard 
for conquest o'er eternal death 

what say u of the light not dim 
when dawn reflects Apollo's light, 
this heart awaits the sound of him 
who lights it with his godly sight 

what say you jailer of this crave 
this thirst my soul transforms to lust. 
what say you of the calling grave 
your touch has crumbled to the crust 

what say you of this joyful pain 
that cupid's arrow dawns the wake 
this heart gave up for you to gain 
caressed within a turbid lake 

not much to say but more to give 
receive the heart that found your stare 
and scrambling thru the mortar's sieve 
in search of words... not needed here.
