Us

I wanted this to last 

late night talks, laughter till noon 

the fascinating sense of time standing still 

whenever we appeared 

I need to remember 

you. 

for the rest of my days 

and endless nights, too 

we were like sugar and sassafras 

mischief and licorice sticks, 

obliviously entranced and mystically matched 

no one else mattered, not that we cared. 

for all we could see was  

us...

~ this is absolutely beautiful... i especially loved the last stanza... a very consuming heartsong... sad... but also lovely...
