Daydream

a glowing gaze was slowly met
or so it at first had seemed
irises in-twined and slowly set
into these lover's dreams
they build their memories

the seconds pass
their breathe is lost
conversations made of gasps
the hearts inside their chest were robbed
once beating, now have stopped

still it lingers
as eons fade
with outstretched, reaching fingers
these lovers will forever stay
and search no other way.
