I Look for Your Name

I look for your name.
I imagine your deep eyes
tracing the words
I have written for you
written to give you
the breath straight
from my soul
words that must live in tokens
or said in whispered
satisfaction, seeing yourself
in the web of syllables
I spun to catch your deep eyes,
my miraj, my quiet
unhappy illusion
of you my own sound
reverberating you.
