If I can slow you down
To the point
Where walls collapse
Where worlds collide
Into a single moment
Where we stand toe to toe
To share a look
Bare our souls
Then I will have achieved something
Transcendent
Worthy of this artistry
Shared
Revealed
Celebrating invention and delight
Shouting freedom
Curiosity
Rebellion
No authority holds us in check
Propriety or politesse
Just the measure of each moment
Each breathe
The realization of what’s right
For you
For me
Tonight
