my feelings –
alien to you as much as – secure is to timid,
shatter like shards of glass against your narcissistic walls…
how awesome,

being you;
how – required!
pompous as an apostrophe –
owning possession,
and the power to unite –

and while you dangle effortless,
unencumbered –

more than any imagined ownership.
for without you,
meaning is lost;
and I become irrelevant as a useless preposition –
alone – without the companion of my most reluctant,
yet oh so necessary –
object…
