Love Rests Between Us

'To see is to believe,' and the fact
Remains that all we believe may not be.
I see you, and you see me... but
Love you cannot not see.

si(I see not our breaths,

love,

but I believe we breathe)gh

Would you, could you - After all,
I'm disclosing this mask
Right here in front of you -
At least, believe in me?
