the dark room

the deafening silence

the beat of my heart

the swirl of surrealism

the sound of your laugh

the sense of calm

the years of build up

the feel of your skin

the taste of your lips

the softness of your touch

the heat from your body

the intensity in your eyes

the moment we waited for

all of our lives

and you paused and clearly, definitively, you outlined the two moments in time

the before and the after
