Edges - ragged edges
reminders of you and me
together and apart
Apart - the tearing
leaving pieces of
ourselves behind
Edges - ragged edges
part me, part you
tender to the touch
Healed - partially
enough not to unravel
yet still sensitive
Edges - ragged edges
wanting to be smooth
but forever ragged
1980
