088: I never knew the air was/so dense so palpable...

DateMonday, November 15, 2010 at 5:13AM

I never knew the air was

so dense so palpable

until there was all this

          distance

between us

I've said this

a dozen different ways now

          I know

 

Language speaks to us

we hear it

but it doesn't touch us

it doesn't curl up and

grow inside you like

a child in a womb

 

I'm not waiting for you

to show up at my door

I want your whole heart

to stay with me

night and day.

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate it. I like the idea that anyone can comment with out registering, but this may be potentially abused as well. So, your comment will appear when it has been cleared by a website editor. I think this creates a happy medium between engaging conversation and keeping the conversation on topic. Thanks again!
