in between this

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

between ~~~ the~~~ words

among ~~~the~~~ stars

within~~~ the~~~ tiny~~~ movements

aching ~~~in~~~ my~~~ heart



it ~~~is~~~ this

in ~~~almost ~~~silence

that ~~~holds ~~~together~~~ shells,

spheres~~~ of ~~~iridescence

and~~~ incandescent~~~ rays,

that ~~~somehow

cracks~~~ me~~~ open

the ~~~silent~~~ sound~~~ of~~~ which

echoes~~~ as~~~ the~~~ murmur

Between~~~ the~~~ words ~~~to ~~~sit.
