    My Love is Silent

    Most of my love has remained unspoken.

    Written by my fingertips
    the expressions of my heart
    ink promises traced down your cheek,
    along the ridge of your chin, enveloped in the curve of your lips.

    Each whispered beat of my heart,
    alights upon silent wings
    finding their way flocked upon your chest
    gentle murmurs fluttering hopes and dreams.

    My gaze carries the warmth of my thoughts,
    It’s light absorbed in the dark pools of your eyes,
    cooled within deep caverns into a temperate serenity.

    Tears fall,
    flecked chipped diamonds, everlasting proofs,
    melding with the crook of your neck.

    Embraced in unyielding boughs
    rest easy, unwavering faith is protected
    even as storms may pass.

    My breath releases a part of my soul.
    Shared life transferred through my kiss,
    Exchanged, forms into a new wholeness.

    In these ways, my love needs no words to be heard.

    That's beautiful. I like how you opened with "my love has remained unspoken" and closed with "my love needs no words to be heard" like bookends.

    This is beautiful with a depth of emotion and some wonderful imagery.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
