a heart is stuck on you

near to far, near by far

with and without

a heart is one with you

broken but spoken then broken

reddened, then back-filled

with yet more ruby-red!

All the while

the cup to hold

at near overflow

All the time..

The un-steady..

~

wincing at the cups lip

I hesitate before a gulp

I chalk my throat and 

I remember something

about the leaves in the driveway 

and the outside light that doesn't light

and your beautiful silence and the day we...continue.

Your mind is one with my heart

mind in mine

heart in mind

mind in heart

your heart is one with my mind

I'm dizzy in the kitchen

making you coffee

spreading the butter on your toast

feeling the warmth from the smile pending

the steam from the coffee cup rising

The tide commands our best steps

the moon reminds the tide of the

E-motion.

The un-nerving.

Us.

What it is to read a poem dedicated to love, written sincerely in the male voice... priceless.

All the while

One of my faves of yours. For sure.
