Unforgettable Charade

Women and children rush across the street.
Cars zoom forward to unseen destinations.
Droplets of water dance down the sky,
sliding off awaiting umbrellas.

Puffs of smoke escape my mouth; My breaths,
as I laugh wholeheartedly.
You spin into the downpour,
pulling me along into movement.

Stopping all traffic with this little charade,
Horns blare as you smile and wave; I just shrug my shoulders.
Passing observers turn their eyes to us.
Somehow we are the center of attention.

A deep kiss on my lips; the world freezes.
The cold, the horn, the people no longer exist.
You pulled a fantasy from my heart
and created an unforgetable reality.

A collective sigh fills the breeze; we all inhale.
The world echoes the sentiment "he is loved".
My hand finds itself twined within your fingers,
where its always belonged.
