Between
In between the words
We say one unto another
Lie syllables and silence
Which speak boldly out
Thoughts and feelings
We dare not yet give voice.
Our soft and soothing tones
Caress each other gently
The dance stepping ever
Subtly closer to the point
Where I might whisper
I love you and you respond in kind.
