silence is a room
for us when the sound of heart
is unclear

tattered
construed like tiles of words
so the floor, our basis, is the
syntax
our difference, the door

and in this room, we are complacent

&quot;Poetry is meant to be read aloud&quot; <br /> I can&#039;t remember where I read this but it is the truth of the matter.

This is really good. I love it. It's confusing and wonderful.
