prepositional phase
where you are right now
between away and to
is not where i am
among the concerned leaves
down along the empty hallways
beside and amidst the parted grasses
there will never be an after
without the before that came before
no here no there
no way around above or through
without me, without you
the perhaps of you and I
has been overtaken by the now
why doesnt even enter into it
and that will have to wait for spring
Deep and moving poem.
