Between creative and caring

Your world is such an intimate thing

As defined by date and providence

The way you knit and hold people together

Is foreign to me

Not because I fear the close

Or can't tolerate the speech

Of those who should be closest to me

No

For me

To create

Is a necessity

It is to contest and be alone at times

And to gaze back into the distance of time

Knowing it will win

But this day it did not

Hold anything over me

I enjoy close breath from you alone

Because you're free and sweet

But everything else I tolerate for you

Because I do

And it's what you do equally for me

This is me becoming us
