19 September
We were just overlapping circles*
When I didn’t ‒ and you did ‒
It was y minus x,
A cancellation
(Not summation)
Of the good in us
When you didn’t, nor did I,
Residing ‘quite elsewhere’
In two diagrams :
Hidden discourse
Our universes
INTERLUDE
When I had to, you could not ‒
My cypher decoded
(And utterly plain)
In your fierce sight,
Shaming my spirit
When you felt as I did,
An unrushed moment ‒ as
Of tranquillity ‒
Settled upon us,
Mended all our hurt
