Exceptional The absence of knowledge about feelings. Daydreams from the Ashes : Like Silver Threads by K. Olsen

I do not know if I love you. I do not have gemstone words, Nor love’s carnation flowers.  I feel soft things in softer spaces, I feel stirrings of regret— Like silver threads in a spider’s web. I do not know if I love you, I do not have a fond farewell Nor adoration’s rosy color. I feel sharp edges in jagged splinters, I feel absence in every touch— Like smoke curled around fingers. I do not know if I love you. I do not hold the thorns of roses Nor the quiet of falling petals.  Author Notes Rhyming it is not, but it is absolutely heartfelt.
