If You Know Who And Where We Are Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

As long as you feel I remain accessible,
And here for 'you'...
Needing not a hint or clue,
As to my motives.
That should be enough,
To stop a potential rocking of our boat.
Our hearts are known,
And shown to be devoted.

Why should you prioritize the opinions of others,
That have nothing to do with the relationship we share?
Why should you care,
If you know who and where we are.
And what is between just us.
With a caring deep within our reach.
Especially when you know others can barely stay afloat.
And together they find no time to speak.
