In the most beautiful moment of time,
You broke me in the most beautiful way.

We created bliss;
My arms sculpted around your neck and your head softly sewn into my breast, dangling extra strings and knots across my heart.
Life erupted outside against the starry night and infinite cosmos,
But in our paradise nothing else existed.

Though our love preservers and grazes strongly,
Fate has not yet allowed it to pause time.

The time to split the heaven we created crept against us;
It was cold and sat against our sides,
Tempting us with the promise of estrangement as soon as the red and white lights hit our aura.

"I have to go," I whispered, scared of rejecting time and defying the nights fate.
I chipped our masterpiece.
My arms fell from you then chilled from the lack of life that resonated seconds before.

You refused to budge.
Your knots tugged tighter and you spoke a word that erupted the millions of lights inside to sparkle.

"Stay."

My spirit flipped; I know not whether it was a leap of celebration or anguish.
I couldn't depart from you once you gave me the pure gift of sincerity and the most beautiful heart of gold.

Though I'm miles away from where you are,
And where we were,
I still feel the gentle tug of your knots and strings.
They have the softest caresses,
They have the strongest hold.

You told me forever,
And I can't limit my heart to anything less than an infinite span of love with you.
