Vespers

I dreamt of you last night. I can still envision your smile, that bright mural, the colorful decor, The Korean couple, aging bohemians, living vicariously through us, as we toured their home. You told me I was the love of your life. We kissed, and it was electric. As though our lips were two filaments, our souls conduit, We created, and conducted, a shared, essential spark, I loved you completely, in that moment, knew you, felt you, completely. In that small eternity, I experienced happiness, as I had never done before, As though a lens, has focused, I now understood, what others felt, When they used words, like contentment, and fulfillment, and bilss. For a brief space, of subconscious delight, I forgot what it was like, to be hollow, And existed, for a pause of breath, in the warm overflow, of your embrace.
