Concert

by Amanda Quraishi

I melt in to the hypnotic warmth,

I am finally alive.

Kisses on my back...

I feel them long after your lips have traveled elsewhere.

 

A moment of silence that lasts for an hour,

and we are both afraid to break

the spell with clumsy words.

 

Our hearts sing in chorus

And we listen to their music,

Astonished by the beauty;

Humbled by the power.
