but look close and see the cracks 
and spaces, feel the openings 
and know that I am incomplete

and I cannot slow down time

escaping the rotting glow of natural light 
and yeah, maybe we’ll do more 
than this little dance of barely 
touching hands — 
of needing some pretense 
to actually reach out… 
maybe soon we can just be direct 
and tell one an…
