Atmosphereic Phenomena

I didn't ask for much.

I just wanted to be held,

Close

Hearts beating in sync, fingers interlocked, ear pressed to shoulder

Just for a little while.

 Words spoken with out a disclaimer or conditional clause its what they call

Transparency.

When we were together I felt just comfortable enough to strip,

layer upon layer away until I was almost bare.

Vulnerable and naked even while wearing my favorite sweatpants and a t-shirt that smelled just like you.

Your palpitating energy pulsating into mine,

 A blinding, explosive, eternal flame which refused to be snuffed out.

We were stars.

Colliding,

Falling through galaxies. Transcending time and space.

The descent was unstoppable.

Spinning, and whirling out of control

All balance lost

We crashed.

 The smooth, curves of my surface transformed to jagged edges.

Daggers of self-preservation

And I shattered the planet that one day might have been called

Us.
