Seamlessly Torn

The reason why I am silent or use scrypted words
Is the gulf between
Who I am the second before she speaks
And who I will be three heartbeats after seeing you

It is the difference
Between skin and rain
Between life and light
Between like and fall
Between chance and Chancery
Between angels and barbers

It is the essence
Between page twenty-eight of
The Book of Eternal Slum
And page 14 of Ber

The reason why I am silent or use worded scrypts
Is the gulf between
The ghost of Venus in her
And the ghost of ghosts you're not
