Fast forward
Everything in ones twos
Pace of a matador facing red
Our legs barely land
Then soar
Our bodies left behind
Watching as we rise
Stars lighting up the night sky
Moon illuminating our minds
In this moment
Whether we stumble
or
kiss at the start of rain
No matter
Only after
The aftertouch
Hands locked
blemishes on knuckles
Sunlight burns
and mortal sins
Only after
When we return
Back onto bodies
will we feel and realize
that the longest part of life
lies away from these hearts.
