Inside the Heart  #101

he can disappear
between sips of chai
and often does

 by the time
you let your hair down
he

vanishes,
like something
you are not quite sure
ever was,
as if your memory
has failed you

when you question
yourself
where you were once certain
but now unsure

of everything
you had convinced yourself exists
outside the box and

inside the heart.
