Talking in bed ought to be easiest
Lying together there goes back so far
An emblem of two people being honest
Yet more and more time passes silently
Outside, the wind's incomplete unrest
Builds and disperses clouds in the sky
And dark towns heap up on the horizon
None of this cares for us. Nothing shows why
At this unique distance from isolation
It becomes still more difficult to find
Words at once true and kind
Or not untrue and not unkind
