into your mind, if I could have you
feel the way it feels,
if I could draw the links to show
the concept that it illustrates,
maybe I could fully grasp it, too
And so I seek
the language that doesn't hinge on words,
that doesn't need the fraught traverse
from my thoughtscape
to some guessed construct
that I have of yours
Instead, this language holds your heart
as something infinitely dear,
and offers it a hearth
and traces what it longs to hear,
and lets you feel the welcome
that all home is made of,
and your heart will draw the picture,
absolutely clear.
