Hello.

When I first let her know that I loved her,
I didn't even use words.
As she lay on top of me,
I simply traced an I, and then a heart,
and then a U on her back.

Now, once again, I don't use words.
Because I can't use any words...
I cannot even say "Hello."

The beginning and the end of a relationship,
similarly wordless, but entirely disparate.
