Still, we do not know. Still, and nothing moves to shape the night around us. We lie at the still centre of our universe where only the darkness can touch us. But we hide inside and around each other as though there is nothing between us and no space can grow where there is no gap for it to seed itself. We will not part, even though the awkwardness causes discomfort, it is not such an ache as parting, even for a moment. We breathe together and stay together.
If there could be a time when we walk away from each other, then let it lie beyond the horizon. Beyond the distances, we can see. Beyond the times, we know. Beyond all the other possibilities that are yet to be.
