1:11 am EST

is there room
how much is required
may i breath for that room for cream
or the spot in the floor where a table might
chance for a position there
will it fit
i am
sitting pondering the presence of
a shard of glass
and what used to be attached to it
forming the complete transparent unit
it was beautiful in its entirety
it remains lovely in its fractured state

will it fall
once pieced together again
will it seal itself
mending the silent impact that forced it apart
maybe with tape
or magic glue
it may take more than one application
it may take some forgetting
it may take running out of mending options

units of time unknown to the materials required

of the raw edges to find their way
back together for a suitable fit

like that spot you know is so very comfortable
in your bed at night
amongst the pillows and the blankets
the course sheets just so
and your arm this particular way
underneath that unique spot
beneath her neck
with my leg like that

sometimes you can find it quietly
easily
other nights it can take some time
and several tries to discover it again
and others still are lost in the search
leaving you unable to be
