And then
I’d remember
How your eyes shone
When you looked at me
Obliquely
Or just with a question
Poised
Ready for a leap of faith
Like teenagers cliff diving
In the heat
Of summer
When we forgot about
Others
Danced with cedars and firs
Above those thin pools
Of critical cool
Where ravens swim and salmon
Touch the sky
And we would hold hands
Like it was meant to be
Forever
Or at least for now
Since there is a forever in now
Which transcends
The reality of this place
Until everything else drops away
It’s just you
Me
And the next breath
That neither of us
Takes

Wow. This is deeply touching. Beautiful. I’m glad this is my first read of the early morning.
Thank you so much. I like this one too!
