Between the Mile Markers

The distance here
between you and I;
it’s not laid with
any
~or~
all
the words we say
the politeness is bittersweet
~yet~
there appears to be infinite road  
stretching out before us,
the faded pavement
glittered here and there
with tiny resentments
that keep us going
between the mile markers
reminding us
of any and all of them;
words we don’t
or
those we won’t
(we can’t)
bring ourselves
to speak out loud
