Television off, and the radio,
this house a temple tonight
not a mausoleum
A heart's distance away
she lies asleep and dreaming
with me awake and wishing
Breath sounds, softly below
a train horn muffled through walls
keeping cold out and love in
She coughs, my heart races,
wondering at the cause,
sheets rustle, small angelic sigh
the world becomes sacred
Ladies and gentlemen, if my math is correct, this is my 200th consecutive post in 200 days. I don't know how I arrived here...it's been a long, strange trip. Whew.
