I thought it was clear
between us
between us
You would call
First
When all the fears
and doubts
hung around
swarming like wasps in the dark
We were a heartbeat apart
from the start
A duet of free belly laughs
unstoppable
through it all
How can this lifetime river's
steady flow
cease
One heartbeat
too slow
