Edges - ragged edges <br /> reminders of you and me <br /> together and apart <br /> <br />Apart - the tearing <br /> leaving pieces of <br /> ourselves behind <br /> <br />Edges - ragged edges <br /> part me, part you <br /> tender to the touch <br /> <br />Healed - partially <br /> enough not to unravel <br /> yet still sensitive <br /> <br />Edges - ragged edges <br /> wanting to be smooth <br /> but forever ragged <br /> <br /> <br />1980<br /><br />Alice Vedral Rivera<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/edges/
