For very long, we were strangers

Aliens

Unknown

Untouchable

Mere spectres gliding silently 

The cat was killed

We finally talked

We finally grew

We finally lived

We shared few words

                                         We played few games

                                                                                   The morning was crisp, a genesis

               

                                                            Before Long

We became something more

We became friends

                                                                                   But the heart got in the way

                                       

                                         The mind willingly agreed

Soon we were tangled

The sun dawned upon a dreary valley, cracked with lust

The moon bathed timid roots

The Heavens themselve watched from above, waiting

And all the while, we danced to an Earthen hymn

Clumsy, yet beautiful

Swaying in the lively soil we did

Our feet alongside our hearts

My eyes, the life

Her eyes, the home

Our gaze, a new beginning

But just as the heart had before

                                      The mind got in the way

                                                                              It called upon thoughts

                                      Careless and cold

They pulled us down

Our dance was over

Away we drifted as the ground grew barren

As the life died in our eyes

Swaddled by Gaia

We were hidden from view

Yet.......our steps could still be heard

Upon they ground where they rested

Spinning

 

                  Stomping

                                      Sliding

                    

                                                    Soaring

To the beat of another heart
