Breathe

Swirls of
color frame your soul.

he's beautiful.

she's amazed.

dreaming of
strings of sound floating in circles

caressing the skin
beauty

pale breath
on the glass

spelling love in the fog
never wanting to leave

arms
hands
fingers
embrace

trace
curve
pain

our hearts converse
mentioning once or twice a possible deceit

i ignore it

where day meets night
and the moon plays peek a boo with the sun

the rain smells crisp and fresh
and i smile

one day, we'll get older
and say our goodbyes

all we can do is keep breathing.
