More than your name

I whispered more

than your name

last night

before finally

I slept.

.

I whispered more

than your name

last night,

bravely

into the dark,

like a poem

like a prayer.

.

I whispered more

than your name

last night,

hoping the soft

seeking syllables,

the wishing

wanting words

would somehow

reach you

and touch you

deep.

.

I whispered more

than your name

last night.

Perhaps

you didn’t hear.

Expecting to fly

 

Sometimes

we expect to fly

without stretching

without reaching

without trying

without striving

without pursuing

without attempting

without persevering

without endeavouring

without believing.

 

Sometimes

we expect to fly

without taking

a risk.
