Hands hold tight to the Mic and your hand covers mine to calm me. You smile and I smile back but it looks more like a nervous grimace. You start speaking the opening of our duet poem, my response comes without much thought. Your eyes stay locked on mine. You tell me that its hard for you to see a life without me, I response with its impossible. You say you see no way around it and I cry and say I can feel it in every kiss. I forget the crowd is there and the words I wrote, now I am just reacting in the moment to what you said. Your eyes flash a briefly hurt look , you say every kiss is lace with love and I said every kiss holds a taste of sorrow. My attention is captured by a voice in the crowd, someone saying love conquers all. I look at you and repeat it. I love you, may not be poetic but its the truth. The crowd aws and claps but my eyes never leave yours.
