what it would be if it were.

it was a perfect, slow silence
holding us close
the pounding of his heart on my back
sang me to stay awake
and i thought back to five hours ago
when it was a perfect, slow kiss
that was holding us close
and the pounding of my heart
rendering my words useless
as he danced me out of my element
to here.
with this perfect, slow silence.
and him.
