between you and me there is nothing (Free verse) by silvertongueddevil
between you and me there is nothing
but the two thin layers of perspiration
we are slick with this humid evening.
slow and raw and tender
under the rumble of the ceiling fan
memories of the ocean's moving
draw us back and forth across the bed,
two sea creatures stranded inland.
solace is in our fragile oyster flesh
and our cool salted skins.
