diction (redux)
is there enough of your essence 
in the context of 
words well-chosen 
to have given me the depth 
of the experience of loving you? 
more than a rhetorical question, 
but then what we have is more than 
the best diction can circumscribe 
there is no such fence around us 
even though the articulation 
of a thorough loving glance 
is difficult, not to mention 
the tenderness only our skin 
knows the language of 
our love has made things 
possible that we never thought 
of dreaming about 
before there was us 
before there was yes
