Pregnant pause

Ok, so 
This is that
Pregnant 
Pause 
Between one 
Moment and
The next, that
Pause in which
Worlds collide and
Universes cleave off
And that which
Was never born dies
To be reborn.

This is that time
Between times, that
Forever that is
Fleeting glimpsed,
That world behind
The world, that
Weirding that is so
Much more and
Much, much
Less.

This is all those
Promises made and
Lived and loved,
Spat out the
Other side like
So much sodden
Detritus in the 
Faint drizzled rain
On the roadside,
Bereft and yet
Whole.

This, my
Loving gift
To you.
