I Wonder

May 20, 2016 by Katelyn Chen, Grade 8

I wonder sometimes how many times your lips

have carved out my name into the hanging silence;

For mine have done yours on countless occasions.

A mute mouth, or perhaps a breathless whisper

marveling at how this cluster of syllables

can hold such emotion.

A feather-light flutter, or perhaps a burdening weight

touching a spot deep within your being.
