These words will get deeper
and the safety of space
space inside,
around, between us,
space like fancy packaging,
wrapping our soul, selves, lives,
will not save us.
The heart will get sharper
with small hands will push
all that we love,
hearts have small hands.
they need space to hold,
like ships with cargo.
Hearts like ships in the ocean
carrying, like women
protecting, in a storm,
proud in calm, unknown waters.
Those hearts will get sharper.
With small hands will push
all that we love
Make space
Space inside,
around, between us
for us.
For a moment of love,
Moment inside,
around, between us
Moment full of hands,
hands, inside,
around, between us
Arms,
all around us.
