KNOWING

by Jennifer Dunlop
Ontario, Canada



you said
'I know you do'

in such a quiet, definite voice

as if that is not all you understand
as if you recognize
much more

as if you would, once knowing,
never forget

and the sound of your voice
was like a touch
on my skin

and the noise in my head
quieted

for a moment
