we found
a moment for us.
a space of tender distance
filled with ineffable intimacy
we spoke
candidly of our shared desire
with words that crumbled
under the weight of our hearts
we sat
quietly,
as the music held us In-Between
and our hearts grew close
we met
when the wind sighed through
trees that bathed in golden light
and when
we touched,
delicately,
hand in hand
all was shimmering
...
contented in the sea of you
I closed my eyes to listen
In-Between
in that solemn home of solitude,
a gift:
your beloved heart singing its powerful footfalls
under each of my heartfalls
and when I breathed in
this marvel of you
your chest rose to
meet my reverie.
