SEE-SAW

SEE-SAW

See-saw
twinned, counterbalanced
you and I. So high
you take me. So deep
within you
rocking, rocking.

See-saw
'twixt then and when
flits fleeting now
we reach, touch; grasp, clutch
fingers locked but
slipping, slipping.

See-saw
the very word[s]
tell[s] the tale: a vision
is a mere hyphen away
from a memory
passing, passing.

in awe of mastered words

you make me wonder how it happens...how every time you catch me off guard and i am suprised but not at all. "See-Saw...is a mere hyphen away, from a memory, passing, passing." the term beautiful would come close, were it not so minimal... <3 Emarie
