Language
When a man is in love
how can he use old words?
Should a woman
desiring her lover
lie down with
grammarians and linguists?
I said nothing
to the woman I loved
but gathered
love’s adjectives into a suitcase
and fled from all languages.

Beyond dependence on words love transcends.
Above confines and constraints of languages, love’s freedom substitutes feelings, emotions and senses instead.
