these streets move together,
bodies close-pressed

one

and yet I feel the space between us

I,
your paramour

you,
my paradigm

and as twilight falls on these
unfamiliar faces,
still

I only see you in
my mind

OK, I can see the dedication in this but I don't think you put it very well. It's too brief. Maybe you could extend and expand on this idea? :)
