bumps and kisses

you drive me crazy with your isness
sometimes
and you know i now
and i know you know

sometimes.

this is the only way to speak
to send some varied breath out
into oblivion
and pretend you hear
when you tell me you love me.

it is perfect, no?

there is nothing wrong with this.
you know i know
and i know you know
and so lets just stay as we are

knowing in uncertainty
and perhaps
when we are old

and have grown up
we will have some sense
to speak the truth that was always there
but somehow wasnt

and no longer will it matter
because perhaps

then
we will be wiser
and not as we are now
in our knowing and uncertainty.

you understand?

I am missin' you somethin' awful. I was showing the baby my Polaroids today and I teared up when I got to you.
