Do you believe in life after love?

She felt my heartbeat and I touched her sol. When we kissed, I tasted forever. It tasted bitter like the aftertaste of lemonade, it also tasted sweet; candy apple sweet. Her tongue was intoxicating. I got lightheaded, and weak in the knees. The picture we must have made. A live lover’s statue, Frozen in the middle of the train station for all to see. We didn’t care though. When we finally did separate and the platform stopped spinning. I opened my mouth to speak and found I had no breath for sound. She smiled at me, and while I had no eyesight for her smile, I could feel her warmth envelop me. It was like standing next to a bonfire on a cold and windy night. Seconds, hours, days, who knows how long we stood there. In her, I felt my own heart beating. She was my heart monitor. If we disconnected I knew my heart would cease. So, I just held on to her. I held on to her for dear life, my dear wife. In some ways I am still holding on. All these years gone by and I can see her still. Her stormy gray eyes, child’s eyes, full of laughter, curiosity, and hope. The nights we spent huddled together for warmth. And the days we spent fasting, feeding only on each others love for substance. Now I am cold. Cold and supperless. How easily she was taken from me. How funny the strong can become weak. The land inherits the meek. Gentle Jesus, meek and mild, you took from me my little child. Pity my simplicity. Suffer her away from me. In my little bed I lye. Heavenly father hear my cry, I’ll love her always, and I love her still. I will see her again, if gods will.
