Wrapping Words

I want to wrap my words

around your mind

and let them linger there.

I want to stitch a speech

that slips into your heart

when you least expect it.

I want to flick lace-edged phrases

across your eager eyes

so you can feast upon

the literary delights from my

treasure chest of clichés.

But I can't.
