Dark Refrains

My feet carried me to you
in the instant that my eyes
fell upon your image.

Open armed and wide eyed,
a clichéd action, a clichéd instinct
to fill me with your presence.

Limbs swirling like a dance
as we embraced the moment and each other
in a deep surge of emotion.

The moment was fleeting yet timeless.
The action, perfection.
When I'm with you all is wondrous.
