Suspended
The world is suspended with her on my chest;
her breathing is steady and I am at peace.
So much in this moment, both slowed and compressed;
the cares of the day are forgotten, released.
How is it we let such moments slip by,
failing to grasp how important they are?
Careless indifference, letting time fly,
stuck on the sidelines, filmed from afar.
