Ellipsis

The most perfect punctuation

I loved you before I knew your name

Your simple three dots spoke louder to me than all the words on the page.

You represented immediately the way of my mind

A thought interrupted

Like all my thoughts

Details unable to speak

but important enough to have an advocate

The mind makes a leap

no words could express

Only you can capture

that there is always more to the story

Then I heard spoken your perfect name

The lapse of an eclipse

An ellipses

Authors note:

My intuitive and attention deficit mind makes leaps constantly and it’s difficult to always fill in the gaps when explaining my reasoning to others. This is magnified when I express my deepest thoughts and feelings into written language.

The ellipsis has been my most trusted writing companion from the moment I discovered it and well before I understood its proper use… instantly I knew we belonged to one another.
