eyes touch from across the room
hands reach out, bodies fuse
souls blaze with phosphorescent light
dissolve in incandescent night.
here we are in complete disbelief
worn out by worry
exhausted by grief.
yet i am me
& you are you
we are what we are
& that’s the best thing.
the present imperfect
is our paradise.
i’m ready for a miracle.
maybe you are too.
