Our Minds Are Connected

Our minds are connected

You propel me forwards with you reassuring speech.

Me without you, you without me, I couldn’t fathom.

Our spirits are intertwined, till the end of tomorrows.

We extricate one another from pain and sorrow.

Your mask is that of effervescence, mine mimics as such when I’m in your presence.

Your aura strums the strings of my existence.

Your soft feminie hand is where I reach for when my vision is bleek although I still love the warmth of your cheeks

Our intimacy far exceeds that of the physical.

***Decades Later***

Feelings of dejection, have long since been on borrowed time.

We rolled the die, digits crossed, we ended up without a slice of the pie.

And yet still we lay atop the clouds overlooking our magnificent lives.
