When two "unalike" objects try to occupy the same space
It's raining.
There's solace in the sound.
My mind's afire,
but the rain is soothing.

You lie,
I sit.

You there,
I here.

Separate,
    alone,
          apart,
having touched
but never clasped!

I would have given ALL
to protect you-
    to keep you safe.

But such things as these
are not,
nor have they ever been,
in the spaces where
life actually occurs!
