The Moment

Story by Blargoyle on SoFurry

Remember that moment?

The two of us

Striding in delight

Away from the sun

Towards the moon

I hid the urge

To speak the words

That whispered in the trees

The lavender breeze

Entwining my thoughts

To ease clarity

Through discretion

And before we spoke

We touched

We felt

Reigniting the world

Through our weakened souls

The dancing divinity

Of the heart's chasm

Filling with fluidic gesture

That can yield no binds

To the sheeted sky

And like all that came before

The journey had ended

You were gone

And I remained

Trying to catch the fading image

Of your sweet smile

I laid there

Until the moon shone over me

To light the broken path

Shaped by my hands

Crafted through despair

Forged in fear

While the world sleeps

I lie awake

To wait for your return

And give you the heart

I had been saving for so long

But I must submit to reality

And continue where I left off

Time will close the gap

Even if it is a universe apart
