I watch your quivering lips await mine
As you watch my lips seek yours;
Eye contact not required,
We stare into each other's lips instead,
Reading our emotions that way.
When our eyes do meet,
A hundred more feelings pulse through my retinas from your lenses.
In order to live in the moment
We close our eyes and sway in the darkness
Gripping each other to not fall over,
Trying to ignore the cold
But shivering still as one body
Until we can no longer take it.
So we part slowly, hands the last body parts to separate, palm slipping over palm, fingers rippling over one another 'til they snap in disconnect reflecting our regret of division.
We take our last looks, hoping they'll be enough to last until next time.
