it pains you, of course, everytime you think about it
everytime you have to pack up your stuff and leave, that dull ache burns in your heart
you feel it physically
this gnawing ache
as you re-live that hug,
that gentle kiss.
today you did a sort of half dance, your feet on his
melting into each other
and you know even now that it will be your lifetime memory.

you wonder if this ache is worth it
they would tell you you are stupid to take it this far
but if only they look closely, really closely in your face, they'd see


because you have seen love,
you have seen a glimpse of the machinery that runs the universe
and that is worth it.
