I sneaked into that forbidden door,
All is quiet in that small dark room.

He is situated in a corner near the window
His eyes are set deeply into mine.
His mouth opened.
I lip-read the words.

I walked to the windowpane
He moved near to me
I can feel his gapped breathing
A deafening silence..
I felt like floating.
Then all of a sudden,
I hear nothing, see nothing.
