strangeness

the fact that this 
is not a test
is trying, sometimes 
it must be said,
it’s hard not to 
draw more reasonable 
conclusions 
in this than 
what we might wish, 
try to believe 
…to be true
fortunately 
there is more 
between me and you 
than questions
otherwise 
the answers would 
have already decided
the outcome
for us

what is 
this strangeness 
in the air about us 

or is it just 
me and you 
and not us

 between us, 
two

regardless…

 
we share 
a strangeness
 
…all that 

and our love 
is strong, 

too
