The Space of I and You
I wish for someone who not take the words for what they are
Rather for what they mean
I and you with a space in between-
That space, a void needing a simple word to bare-
However, this is no simple affair
What’s put there may be true,
May be false-
these words are so confusing, the simple meanings get lost
