Silence... Poem by Nestor David Armas

Hi hello hola

My buttercup,

How I've missed your eyes

I've been waiting to embrace

You with mine,

I'd take a picture

But it wouldn't

Do you any justice,

Nothing like the real thing

See how my fingers quiver

I'm itching to trace

Every feature of your face,

Beautiful in every light

Even more so in the dark

Find your silhouette

Beckoning,

Overshadow

Your own shadow,

Outshine

That big ball in the sky

With that smile

I've yearned for

Make you laugh

It's the sound

I wish silence

Was made of...
