Luminescent Heartbeat

In the crowd,

I searched for you,

and there I found

you standing in

the middle,

hopeless.

Your eyes were filled with tears,

your hands were

shivering.

I held your hand and searched your eyes.

The sound of the ocean blurred when we closed in

on each other.

The sky was moving,

we were not.

We looked at each other,

something unspoken

held between us.
