Don't Speak | A Poem by Eckhart Aurelius Hughes

Here is my latest poem. Let me know what you think!
Don't Speak
My words are powerful
So I rest my soul in its own silence
Restrain my body in its quiet
Eye to eye
In a moment's fleeting glance
We can speak for hours, without a single word
And share an eternal kiss, without even moving our lips
Some would say it's just a fantasy
But I've seen fantasies turn real with just a word
I've seen how reality can be like a fire
That spreads to things with just the faintest touch
And makes them part of itself
So don't say a word
And smile gently
Protect our love in the quiet world
Where eternity stays still and safe
Where all is cool and passion's burning
Where leashed flames can burn forever
Remember, there, our wordless conversation
Don't Speak
My words are powerful
So I rest my soul in its own silence
Restrain my body in its quiet
Eye to eye
In a moment's fleeting glance
We can speak for hours, without a single word
And share an eternal kiss, without even moving our lips
Some would say it's just a fantasy
But I've seen fantasies turn real with just a word
I've seen how reality can be like a fire
That spreads to things with just the faintest touch
And makes them part of itself
So don't say a word
And smile gently
Protect our love in the quiet world
Where eternity stays still and safe
Where all is cool and passion's burning
Where leashed flames can burn forever
Remember, there, our wordless conversation
