The air is still

There is no sound

All that exists is this

 

There is electricity in the space between moments

Between molecules of light and dark

Between us

 

The craving.  The pulse.  The mystery.

It ends here  

Now

 

The moment draws near

Familiar, yet distant

A memory

 

Breath warms my lips

And Fire ignites where your lips graze mine

The sensation too sweet to last

 

I have longed for this

To remember

To feel

 

Tastes linger and the quiet buzz excites

But between breaths we know

The flames will consume if we don’t turn away

 

Now but a haunting memory

It is all that can be

For the space between is vast
