Interstitial

There is something between us

you and me

and all of us

that makes

each of us

a you.

The fiber of betweenness;

Brave Patience is a steady vessel

for sustained curiosity.

But only to the degree that we can stand

that sweet/sour

of languishing anticipation.

Open

because when it happens

that wholeness

Trust me

there are no words

except for these:

to want to be closer to you

makes me more me

than I ever knew I was.
