Our Own Story, Beginning Poem by Matthew Holloway

Two hearts beating heavy
Lungs grasping for a shared air
Eyes locked together
A smile shared
Whispered conversations
Sweet declarations
Of love and lust
What would they say
If they knew of this
Lovers tryst
A coupling of lives
And what should we care
The thoughts of others
Life is for the living
And as long as we hurt, none
We are true rulers
Kings and queens
Able to dream and create
A world of our own
The words of people will change
In time as they always do
For now let us lay there
Locked in a moment
Set perfectly for two
