Ampersands asunder

Just (between)

You & I

ampersands like seeds sprout

One of Us

on either side

& I still

freeze sometimes

-deer at the sight of you-

safely separated by a symbol

We have made it

strategically situated solo

sharing Our time

with ampersands

(in between)

sowing seeds

growing individually

along the same line

You

& I follow

asunder.
