Between the Intervaks



Between The Intervals

Grammar of the
       Irrational,
           Perhaps rational,
               Possibly reasonable.

Constructs:
    Merely
        Words,
Or

 Chosen
    Definitions.
 
Communication:
    Shared
    Interpretations
    Of
    Something,

    Possibly
    Real.
 
The world:
     Some
     External
     Space,
     
     Shared,
With
    Strangers,
    Friends,

Perhaps,
    Past
    Selves,        
Or
    Lovers.

Emotions:
   Elude
   Words
   Not yet spoken.

Maybe
A
Risk
To
Realize
Love.
Discourse:
      Impossible
          Infeasible
An exercise in distractibility.

     
Letters:
Paragraphs
     Ill-crafted
Lined
     By synonyms --
The
Thesaurus  
Of
Love.
     
More than emotion

Love
   Is
    Visceral

More than a part of you,
    Etched in skin.

Love
Walks with you,

Breathes
   as
     you
        breath

Sees
  The
    world

Private
    And
      Intimately
          Shared.

Her
Grammar

Her
Expression

Wordless
And
Eloquent

Living
Between
The
Intervals


The
Language
Our
Language
Of
Shared
Moments
