Between the Lines

Today I think I felt it for the first time,
the depth of now.
Streamlined words, finally
reaching the distance between,
unmasking the tape that held together
my pages of why, mind fingered daily,
the edges dusted with hope.

That's how I felt,
sharing innermost thoughts,
feeling your hand in mine
across the miles.
My heart rests its beat,
the rhythm of you left over
from my morning needs,
caressing it to still.

I walked out into the rain,
wanting to feel its touch,
letting the cool, mix with my warmth,
leaving the drops of moisture
to soak my spirit with the knowledge that
you can see me, the excitement noticeable
when your eyes touch that part of me.

The end is nearing, this day of now.
A breeze is surrendering,
the scent of vanilla surrounding my thoughts
as I wait to relive the untold truth
that has conquered these lips
that taste the sweetness
of a moment of you.
