he spoke in poetry

22.

he spoke in poetry.

everything he said

was so worth hearing

and so worth writing down;

so I did -

I listened to his words

attentively

with a pen and paper

as he breathed out beautiful poems

into my heart

and I traced them on some lose pages

word for word

so I'd never forget them

and the poetic things he spoke

would never

go to waste.

he spoke in poetry.

just for me.
