Circumstance

for whatever reason,
we find ourselves here
together.
wondering, hoping,
feeling.

the stars are
perfectly misaligned,
and our fates
known only
during the pause
between hearbeat
and
breath.

i care not for why,
or how,
or,
when.
this interlude,
pregnant with love and
gentle kindness,
is divine.

this moment
is
perfect
with you.

and this moment
is all there is.

so fall with me,
into the next,
and the one after that,
and every moment thereafter,
for eternity.
