Your shoulder touching mine
As you peer over at my scrawl
While I write this poem showing
How we have been apart
Yet have always been together
Even before we met
Like hidden gardens in an ancient city
Divided by a high slate-topped wall
Covered in lichens
Lutyensian leopard spots unchanging
Lobular, langourous and lenticular
Camouflage ineffective against our love
