On a Dimension of Time

A Dimension of Time

The time has come

His hand caresses her check
She squeezes his other hand

Time is slowing

The heads getting closer
Eyes close

Time is about to stand still

They soon will touch
One thinks, “Finally”

The time is now

Their lips lightly touch
The clock freezes with lips in place

Time is this moment

The lips stay together

Time is an instance

He releases to lightly return
She smiles in her heart

Time is steady

He is her sanctuary
She is his muse

Time ticks

He kisses her upper lip
She – his lower

Time is a tempo

He is slow
She is lost

Time beats

Lips nibble
They immerse

Time is an interval

His tongue engages lightly
She sighs

Time is a continuum

He is delicate
She is his delicacy

Time is a spell
His
Hers

Time is a span

His pace is steady
She hastens

Time is a point on a span

He succumbs
She leads

Time is theirs

Time becomes the past

Their time returns

NOTE: Although some of described certain past posts as poetic, I’ve never posted a poem – so this is the first! Then again, it may not even be a poem – and if it is, I have no clue about its type or style. Nonetheless, thank you Fiery @ Silently Smouldering Words for writing a poem with a line that inspired me to write this.
