Together We Are Not Alone

Too many shards
of my heart
get lost in the
effervescence
tediously placed
here by your
ever-present
relapsing remedy

Waiting for your
enduring words voiced

Among the cacophony and
rising above the
endless distance

No miles could separate
our love
teeming with abundance

Apart we are
lonely stanzas dreaming
of connection but, together,
nothing can separate the
epiphany of us.

(This is a poetic collaboration between myself and Christopher Rupley. We attempted a specific form. Can you guess what it is? 🙂 I absolutely love writing with this brilliant man. Please visit and appreciate his work here.)
