The way the words were formed by her lips

The way the words were formed by her lips
In loops and rings, the recess holding air
That moves and vibrates up from tree-like lungs
That warm this air about a throbbing heart;

Or was it how the light reflected off
Her in a way that brought the room alive
With movement, choreographed light and dark
That flickered across a dim separation?

Desperately, I moved a breath without
My self to vibrate into her. I knew
She heard me when the contours turned into

The nothing filling out the room, and then
I heard her sigh and toss as if a brief,
Senseless dream completely satisfied her.
