Bridge Walks
Electricity runs through my body
As I walk beside you in the darkness
Our arms brush and my heart drops
I don't want to be anywhere else
The cold wind doesn't phase me
I am entrenched in my excitement
The night is still and beautiful
The bridge tall and magnificent
We find solace in an old apartment
Where everything is empty and neutral
What a ******* contrast it is
To where I am with you
As we sprawl out on shaggy carpeting
Time ceases to exist
And despite all odds I guarantee
Somehow, somewhere our souls know each other
This peace and tranquility
Brings solace to the endlessness of life
A rare moment to breathe clearly
When I didn't know I was holding my breath
Everything inside me wants to hold your hand
And when our hands do clasp together
Explosions detonate inside my chest
5 hours of endless conversation
Laced with comfortable silence
And still, when we decide to finally leave
I wish we didn't have to
I could spend days with you
Doing nothing together would be everything
Your voice and your laugh and your smile
Make everything else go dim
I don't know why or how
The universe threw us together
But every moment since
I am undeniably grateful
