This has to be it.

the place between
then and now
how obvious
it is
yet
I can't quite
see it,
make it,
reach my hand to feel
it

but this has to be it

the effervescent
present
the holy
present
the infamous present
they tell you about

where you exist
because I love you
only because
I love you

and where I exist
within myself
and nowhere inbetween
