QFT - 09/18/16

In a breath
between intense
presses of lips
and hips,
the end of your kiss
rips the heavy
stiffness
of stress
from my limbs.
In the skip
of hearts beating
chest to chest,
in the voltage spike
between firing neurons,
in the hollow space
between nucleons,
I almost feel
as if any of this
is real
and not just
excitations
of some
abstract field;

as if your touch

is more than just

the Coulombic force

between us;

as if this moment

is enough.

c - 09/05/16

You and I
are in such tremendously,
terrifyingly different
universes.
I find it impossible
to believe
we ever
could have been close.
There is nothing
in the cosmos
that moves
that fast.
