We sat for hours
talking
eyes
fixed on
each
other
Time had treated us well
we had created a system of connecting
stimulating our senses
just living and breathing
without the complication of
drama and games
Yet it took a while for us
to establish that
to get to the point
where love was a word
that entered
our speech
freely
When the heart
was at peace
rested
satisfied
with the warmth
that came
from being close
to the person
who filled your life
with so much
pleasure
