'tween You and Me

Between You and Me:

I know I am intense;
I mean not to put a fence
‘tween You
and Me.

I know I am erratic
whenever love is static
‘tween You
and Me.

You’re aware I must exude
those feelings raw and crude
‘tween You
and Me.

Our love, it knows no reason—
no politics, nor treason—
‘tween You
and Me.

Aren’t I right to challenge hearts
that blended at the start
‘tween You
and Me?

I am, I do believe!
A truth, I do perceive
‘tween You
and Me …

… ‘tween You
and Me.
