My heart beats so hard that it stings every time you come around,
and we smile again to fill the silence that ensues.

Will words really hurt, or just confuse the sharpness of this moment between
two semi-strangers from two distant worlds?

You're my reminder, my best feeling, my memory, my hope,
the untouchable surface, the history lesson, the moment, the unknown,
a beacon, a mystery, a reason to believe, a person...

that just walked across this room.
