Breath

my breathing was quick

and then stilled

as we sat

in inky black darkness

the color of felt tipped pens and watercolor

and I set my fragile skull on your shoulder

you pressed a cheek to my fine hair

and it was innocent

we breathed in time to the shaky camera

and hauntingly still piano music

and unshed tears

we breathed

our own truths

and it ended

and credits rolled in white text on a black screen

but still we were silent

still we sat in inky darkness

still we breathed
