One of those mornings,
With rain to weigh the heart down and sunshine to bring it higher than ever,
Everything in my sight was brighter, and time slowed just for a moment.
Birds were heard all around, music filled every empty space
And past tense didn't exist, all was is and now.
//
Slowly getting out of bed and going outside,
The door opened and I saw her crying.
I didn't ask what was wrong...
I took her hand and we walked through tears from the sky.
She didn't cry from then, or rather...
We cried together.
//
She grasped my hand; the simple touch was invigorating.
"Do you love me?"
With a certain smile I proclaimed,
"Yes."
We didn't talk,
We didn't look,
We didn't listen.
We held each other for an eternity.
//
Looking then, the sun peered above the clouds,
The rain stopped and she walked away from me.
A smile, a wave, and the grass under our feet.
Our story was told.
-Milton
