The world closes in around us,
And the chaos of everything external fades away,
As we become enshrined in enveloping tranquility.
My every sense is heightened:
Touch, feeling, emotion -- you -- echo throughout my being,
As we breathe the same air -- occupy the same space
As we become one.
And I know your thoughts as you know mine,
And the emotions you feel are within me, too
And I pray to hold back intruding Reality, the world's impurities,
To fend off encroaching Time,
To escape reason, sense ,
Succumb to pure emotion.
Just feel.
To preserve the perfection of this transcending moment,
Of this -- us -- here, now.
