he spoke with the same grammar and
the known alphabet
yet,
he communicated with me in a noiseless language
our letters had passion
chiseled on every bend,
engraved onto every syllable,
and swirling around every vowel as
we memorised the shape of one another's lips saying the three words that meant so much but were said too often and
the letters were addictive.
we then indulged in beautiful pieces of art;
ones with no actual artist
no paintbrush, nor a pencil.
our art was painted across the sky in
blues and greens and yellows
they were painted with raw emotion and zeal that
each stroke of the paintbrush created
symphonies and
we
hummed
along , because it was the only tune our ears befriended.
