Once upon a time…
There was a moment I was blind:
My sense of taste befuddled so mindlessly,
I couldn’t recognize a touch from a kiss.,
Couldn’t breathe for my lungs were so constricted.
It was all the same.
It all meant the same thing.
And I was so very wrong.
You know that place where heaven touches earth?
The light is all I can see when you’re there,
And those shadows seize me hungrily when you’re gone.
Can we stay here and fall asleep in this bliss,
Ignoring the consequences,
Shunning the time,
And letting you slowly devour me?
I’ll lift my head, and you’ll slowly smile,
And then I’m reminded of why I came in the first place.
But the fates are always pulling us apart,
And cruelly you are reminded of where we are,
Where we aren’t supposed to be.
I’ll sigh, of course, and say something I think innocent.
You’ll take it differently and study it,
Pulling each word apart when you know the story.
And I’ll let you.
Because you remind me of everything I cannot see,
Of everything I cannot taste,
And you’ll share them with me as I do you.
I’ll die remembering this, though my memory will fail me often,
And you will need to remind me several times
Of something or another.
But never this,
These moments.
Where heaven touches earth,
And darkness becomes light,
The shadows fleeing as if burned.
And it will last until fate pulls us apart again.
Until we meet again,
I’ll dream of these moments.
I hope you will too.
For an eon and always.
