I Won't Write Poems For You

I won't write poems for you
while we remain thusly aloof
making well laid plans
with elegant caution
believing that slowness
results in not so much tender self
on the very thin line
you from two years of another
me from no more than 4 months of several
somewhere there exists a medium
which I will not label as happy
until I have been there and seen for myself
time does not take sides
