Together

"So when does it start, and how does it end?"
she asks, looking up at me with a puzzled glance.

"Just lay your head against my shoulder," I assure her,
as I savor the warmth of her breath against my neck.
"Together, we can try to figure it out again."

Who knows what the future holds in store for us?
Maybe we can let the errors of our past end here
and start our lives anew.

Now? Never? Forever?
It doesn’t matter.
As long as we’re still here...

Together.
