No Words of Love

No words of love
are more precious
than the ones you never spoke.

And no endearment
dearer
than the quiet darkening of your eyes when we met.

No vows, no promises
were ever as resolute
as your refusal to make any.

And no goodbye
as cruel
as the kind words you greet me with...everyday.
