We Were Lovers, Somewhere in Time


First:
You wooed me with your smile
From far away
Like a gasp of air
After being underwater for
Too long.
Next:
I am walking beside you,
I am clumsy, I am bold.
We kiss,
Euphoria.
Et subito aperti sunt oculi amborum.
Finally:
Language will betray us.
Never spoken is
Better said.
This love:
It does not exist in
The realm of which we reside
Where your lips are conjoined with mine,
But are still one lip.
Time will betray us,
Shortening itself at inopportune moments.
And it 
lengthens
Itself
In 
all 
the
Wrong 
ways.
We are wayfarers,
Slowly trotting towards
One another,
Itching with anticipation
For an embrace
That could create universes.
Explosiones venire.
