There's a word hanging between us,
a present too good to own,
too beautiful to be unwrapped.
It's taken a hold,
made a space in my head
( ( reserved ) )
It has implications.
The signal of the climax,
the beginning of the end,
tragic.
Too good to be unwrapped,
lest it be true.
I don't want that space filled,
don't displace my assurance.
Don't, but no,
like an empty womb,
this space is expecting.

This is lovely and well-written.
This word, hangs heavy.
