You say I talk too much

I bemoan the fact that you don’t, at all

And when I try so hard to keep it all in

Your searing gaze draws

the depths of my soul out

for your amusement.

I hate it so much.

I want to so badly stop this freefall

Of getting sucked deeper into the

Vortex of your love.

Between you and me,

There’s a towering wall

Of this side and the other,

Of how little and too much,

Of ourselves, we can afford to give

Before it ruins one of us.

A thin veil separates us by inches

Stretch your hands a little more,

And you could feel how my skin wakes

Up to your touch.

I try and reach out to you,

But you keep getting pulled, further away from me

Like poetry I cannot decipher the meaning of.

And yet, I’ll never know

How you read me out like

The pages of a book you’ve

Mastered in a different lifetime.

But you know what?

There can be no end

Because you wouldn’t let the beginning of Us

Take over your heart.

We’ll keep chugging in fits and starts,

Like a vintage car too out-of-place,

but too precious

To give away.

We’ll keep meeting at crossroads

And scarring each other

With nasty whispers of recrimination.

“Why don’t you just tell me what you feel?” I’d go, belligerent,

“Stop trying to put a name to it!” you would rebel.

And on and on we would keep

Moving along,

Hurtling at the same speed, and still poles apart

Writing ourselves down into the grindstone

Of fate. Or whatever you’d like to call it.

With you hoping you never have to

Conclude this tale,

With me hoping we would become the short stories

We’ve been trying to write for so long.

You and me, short and sweet

Epic in our “smallness”

Beautiful in the shortness of our time together.
