if we put our hearts in the sun
maybe a ray of light will open up the clouds in our mouths
so many things we should have said
words that never made it past their homes
twilight, tonight is in the stars
i wanted to tell you how much i loved you
but then i opened my eyes

it comes in large quantities,
it is what innovative minds try to describe,
it laughs in the hearts of children
cries in the hearts of the wise,
it is unspeakable, unknowable, and very unlikely,
it flies with autumn leaves caught in a wind,
it floats with winter flakes sadly fixated onto your jacket pocket,
it has no eyes
no ears
no lips to express the joy
the pain
the undeniable.
it is what it is and it can be no more.
