Jun 2017
Dialect of Detail
I can recall every detail
On the top of my sneakers
The faded red
And ***** laces
I can recollect my hands
Crossing my fingers
Increasingly clammy
In between spaces
I remember
The wall, ceiling and floor
Cracked and stained
Bland in places
I summon to mind
Your long-sleeved shirt
Buttons and collar
As my memory retraces
I remind myself
Of what frightened me next
The contact we made
As my heart races
And so I relive
The most precious of moments
As our eyes finally meet
Their passion embraces
Don't let me forget
The depth of connection
As our souls were exchanged
Through the windows of our faces
