TOGETHERNESS

Every single day together,
Every mile they walked with each other,
Every experience, every emotion, every casual touch,
Every joy, every sorrow, every season,
His presence, his absence,
His attention for her, his anger, his silence,
The way their lives weaved into each other,
The way their voices sang an elated tune,
The way he fulfilled her deepest desires,
The way he nibbled her ear and whispered,
The way he looked at her,
The way he held her hand,
The way he made love to her,
The way he made her discover the woman in her.
 
It was life,
in its fullest vibrancy,
Lived together
till death did them apart.
