Between the Lines

I am the context

the implication

the subtle coloring

of the explicit statement that is you.


Your literal declarations

give anchor to my vague subtext,

keep me from floating away into the ether

as I lift you into the clouds.


We watch together

as the unassailable depth

of our mutual construction

spins out before us -

beautiful,

perfect.
