one flesh
It�s her night tonight, and she�s acting the part. She�s got a smile painted on her face and her hair is pulled up like it should be. She�s as pretty as she ever was as she flutters around the room, smiling through her congratulations. Sure to embrace everyone that came, she visits them all by the end of the night. Everyone, that is, except me. Radiant yet simple, glowing white fabric spins around us in our only dance. Connected by hands, but not by eyes, I feel the full weight of the distance. The same distance I felt between our kiss, accented by the immediacy of its end, as we turned and presented ourselves and our new flesh. And tonight we�ll make an excuse. Understanding yet disconnected. Separated, the night will end. Separately, we�ll both lie sleepless. Speechless. In the darkness. In the distance.
