Arithmetic

Sometimes I think that days and moments feelings and emotions should be linear add them up in neat columns clear solutions But most days i do not know the formula to use or how to frame the equation that shows me the way to your heart Geometric shapes of light, angles with edges lines intersecting and rays diverging--obtuse, acute often on the edge of degree of emotion of passion The digital protractor of my soul honed to measure sharp edges built in horizontal spirit levels precise yet not I know well the shapes of your shadow the light from your smile and the warmth of your embrace but your Cartesian coordinates baffle me I can not find the quadrant or the axis Bring me back to the sums of children where love adds up and your heart aligns with mine
