About the Poem

This is all about the intimacies lovers discover in the silence of each other.

Silence

by Lauryn Erl.

The dim light of the moon shimmers
Gently
Through the window and
Spatters onto the cold floor.
The silvery silence bares his soul,
As his body presses against mine,
His warm skin beads with sweat,
The essence of his life.
A quiet rumor.
A sacred secret.
His sweet breath tickles my ear
With dreams of yesterday
And promises of tomorrow.
