When there is nothing but silence
coming through the space between
your lips like mysteries,
I know I have been defeated
by the subtlety of language.
When I hear in the still air
what neither of us
has dared to reveal,
I know I have been out-done
by the energy of the heart.
And when I announce my victory
to the stormy winds outside,
to declare myself the victor:
I know I have been the fool
who will laugh til ever more.
