All Of The Moments

Contributor: E.S. Wynn

For all of the moments when we will laugh
share puns
share bad jokes
tickle and tease
close in
on private chuckles
breathe grins
speak for smiles
and stand happy
together
together

For all of the moments when we will stare
when silence will rattle with life
when the world will fall away
frozen and electric
colors paused
just for us
as we stand


hand in hand
together
together

for all of the moments when we will scream
tear at each other
fuck primal
like crashing waves
screaming heat
screaming toward destruction
together
together

for all of the moments when we will cry
hold each other through the tears
cling
like drowning sailors
to raft-sides
to strong hands
freely offered
while the wind blows on around us


and we weather it all
together
together

for all of the moments when we will stand
lift up and protect each other
eyes alive with iron
white-hot fire
unshakable
unbreakable
steel-staunch for sacrifice
knowing we never stand alone
when we stand
together
together

for all of the moments when we will rest
cuddle up in warm arms
snug
close beneath blankets
and be
just be
meld and melt
into one
together
together

For all of these moments and more
I can't wait to meet you
I can't wait to take your hand
walk with you
into the future
into forever
together
always together.
