Reticence of the Heart

One day
When we’ve finally had enough
When we’ve drained each other dry
We will wander forth
Exhausted, and beneath the star-lit night lie. 

In bewilderment 
As we wonder how much much time slipped by
Reflecting on fleeting sensual moments,
Which stood still an eternity in time.
