Two halves of two
whole hearts too
far apart to mark
either eager emotion
as one undone stark
and solitary match.
Two halves tempted
to toss an anchor
off in anger to
incur her to catch
this night-latch letter of love
to dispatch outside
all of the above.
Two halves of two
hesitant hearts,
whole when together;
incomplete when apart.
Each eager to meet the other
and always anxious thereof.
