I curled by his side
Wrapping my legs on his hips
My arms cuddling him
Placing my palm over his heart
I felt its pounding rhythm
It was as steady
As the wordless affirmation of our commitment
I wondered where we were heading
And the duration of our bonding
For in the trajectories of life
Everything had an ending
With tears swimming in my heart
I held on to him
Cupping my face in his palms
He kissed away my tears
He didn't give any assurances
And I didn't have anything to say
For we had bared each other
Soulfully
And in those silent moments of love
We conversed
Beyond words.
