Speak


Speak…
Let me in your mind

Speak
Let me know you’re fine
If it’s okay
I will be with you all your days
I will find a way
I won’t stop till you stay. and say...

So speak
Finish what you’ve begun
Show the words
Don’t stutter
Let not on your lips hang
Speak to me
And gently now
Let them lullaby drip

As you speak
To me...

PASSING TIME

by Maya Angelou

Your skin like
dawn

Mine like musk
One paints the
beginning

of a certain end.
The other,

the end of a sure beginning.
