How Did I Come Across You?

Was stuck as if it was possible to be frozen in the heat of summer.
Not for too long.
Never ruled out a miracle.
At the time it seemed somewhat impossible.
As things grow you will never see what it is until it’s done growing.
Sitting across from you erased any past bad memory.
Meeting you encompassed all past pain.
It’s possible to get lost talking to you for hours.
After hours even after the restaurant closes.
The look in your eyes tells it all.
The deep gasp of air from the goodness of what’s come of this short time.
Exactly that.
Short time being built into greater.
Our talks grew louder over shared glasses of wine.
Other unhappy couples became uncomfortable.
Light live museum music sets the background tone.
It’s as if you stole a day from me and planned our first kiss over a mountain top of sculptures.
I’m not going to stop telling you what you want to hear.
In the moment being mindful.
I’m just glad you’re here.
