The Significance of Us

by

Whether this significance of being here behind
This jigsaw shouts at me do not follow
Whether the illusory of our weave
Might make us to float without shadows
I shall be the cord of your harp
The sound won't be as hollow as the binding of our previous sorrow
The touch won't be a finger at my lows but a rapturous melody towards gripping to each other's palm.
