The Snippets


It is maddening.

It is aggravating.  Disturbing, irreconcilable...unfinished...left undone.

Snatched away, god damn it was just getting good.

A piece, a tiny small piece...a fragment of a wedge.  The almost handful size of it...

The smallest interaction of you that is allowed in a day.

The snippet of you that you give to me...and that I can cup and drink from, slipping through my fingers and spilling away.  Disappeared. 

Gone.

Until it happens again.  So briefly.

But it leaves a bruise...that I can softly rub and remember where you hit me.  With just the calmest and unmistakable sound of your voice and I let it fall upon me and make an impact.

All done by a snippet of time that I can be with you.
