THE COMM"UNION"

The silence was deafening...
His eyes had caught
those of hers.
A battle he'd faught,for years,
was now won...
They felt stranded,
in the vanishing crowd...
Unarmed that they were,
thoughts began to stir,
as they felt the ground
underneath them retire...
The world ceased.
The sounds went mute.
The watchful eyes around,
for an instant went blind...
She felt a part of him,
run across to reach out,
to what is rightfully hers,
or so she loved to feel.
He too felt the spark,
of pain,that neat joy...
They united...
beyond sight,
beyond touch,
beyond words...
They smiled in assurance
to re-enter this land,
where they are but strangers,
strangers stitched in silence...
They lived in killing masks,
awaiting the crossing time;
for they know for sure,
It was a union,
beyond sight,
beyond touch,
beyond words...
