Can we tuck each other in
between the words that flow like text messages  as we part
late to work after procrastinating on the big "o".
Late again tucking each other in
between the words that trickle out of my parched lips
dehydrated and wanting to be kissed by your moistness
imagining the taste of you words in
between the hectic schedules where we have to deal
with people that we'll never trust as we trust the words in
between our souls keeping our eyes on the prize of familiarity
that we share when the world has us down and we know that we hold the words in
between what is home the walls of our sanctuary that once
inside you and i can't hold back the wordsin
between the gaze of our eyes reminding us that
you are me and i am you and in
between us is the universe
spreading love into the reaches of all that lies in
between our words.
