Wordless

I have your name on paper.

The silver pen in my right hand
writes no more ink than the letters of your name.

I click it open

then shut

then open again & point the top to the paper,
leaving nothing more than a black dot

click shut

I have too many thoughts,
too many feelings consuming me
no word does justice,

wordless - I remain
content, smiling - even sometimes laughing! -
as I simply stare at the four letters in your name.
