So You Say

linger here 
the horizons you left before me
vaster than your most curious smile 
open the tilted door to a delicate whiteness
pervasive it spills into me 
overflows

by the way look no more
the sun is hung where you left it
the small talk of your lonely echoes overheard
by no one scrape 
the skin of my tongue 
produce the sound of things 
falling outside the what
of us

and do you look at me 
when your eyes are closed to the unknowing world
when you linger there surprised
when I ask about your hidden universe
when you turn to me whispering
so you 
say
