The Pain

our photo ripped in
the middle where
our hands held

hold us separately
as if the equator or
continental divide

has tried by trial
and tries us as
seen and been

guilty of being
once     to
gether

yet the parts we
play apart from
one a     nother

are still
on the
same

stage
and then
that's when

i see we haven't
been torn away
it's a crack in

the glass 
of the 
frame's

pane
