like shoes rescued from the incoming fog
onward with them we trudge
bravely unencumbered
happy! just for recognizing what it is we each have
separately found
astonishing love in the other
that we know will not soon perish
along side physical ecstasy in its highest form
nutritious emotional romance
completion for the searching soul
infinity for the once seemingly unloved
now loved beyond all doubt and expectation
two throttled spirits entwined
scouting the realm of fully realized life
heading for what?
we know not just yet
but still happy all the same
for simply heading towards
whatever
that indescribable something
together......always..........
