she speaks with fervor

She speaks with fervor
The words spill out in gushing torrents
Falling and crashing on our ears
With an empty strength that amplifies
Louder and harder as she goes on
Her hands are passionate
Pressing and wrenching
Tight like a twisted cord
Exuding her power and independence
With fury
But her eyes say it all
They tell of the caress of a hand
The hammer of denial
And the whirl of madness
Her eyes say it all and he is gone
Left her empty and alone
Praying for another moment
With his quick smile and tender lips
Still I love her
The days will tread by quietly
Her heart will slip down
Past her shoulder
And tremble on her sleeve
Like a magician's bouquet
Time will quiet her words
Sadness will quell her angry palm
And I will dwell in waiting until that day
When she can open herself once more
