Let the lens record the image of our modern work of art. We fight the urge to spoil it, hiding smiles at least as long as it takes to see a flash, till we can’t contain our laughs. We clench each other’s hands until we can get it over with. As we’re dancing in the kitchen like toy soldiers arm-in-arm. It’s not enough to hold you. In fact, all I can recall is looking out for your lips, keeping watch of your fingertips. As we swing and sway you make your beating heart nearby to mine. Despite how they may cluster, you and I, we made it through the night. And when I kissed you softly, morning burned right through the dark. Those cold cascading tears have made a stream that no damn could hold, and we’ll try to convince each other that it was never anything more. It was so much more.
