Closer
Her face glistened in the sun.
Her heart that was far removed from her
…returned.
Then he tore it out of her outstretched arms.
The cavity in her chest still feels the heartbeat.
Craves the heartbeat.
His eyes,
bearing into her soul, burning her soul.
Seeing every thought and memory.
Not aware of the power he holds,
but withholding.
She drifts afloat on the turquoise sea.
And once again feels the sun, and basks in it.
Imagining
his strength, his closeness.
The two heartbeats
destined for oneness.
