Perfect Bubble
and I close my eyes
to consider how perfect
this little universe
that we’ve created
this tiny bubble
that holds just you and i
its perfect balance
of comfort and mystery
knowns and unknowns
words said and unsaid
longings unaddressed
that hang in the lurch
that tint every conversation
that grow in their silence
pulsating unexpressed
think how tragic it might be
to lose some day
this perfect little universe
