Far From The Madding Crowd

restless, faceless, i try but i no longer see your eyes, no longer hear the sound of your heart as it beat against my ear. i remember i lay on your stomach. blissfully happy. it didn’t matter and it didn’t feel like it would end one day, we didn’t think to or care about that.

i was there. you were there, all that mattered, was nothing else did.

like i had died, and you too. and we were adrift, just adrift. nowhere to be. nowhere better to go. so we stayed. and we stayed. and i’m still there.

and it was true.

there never was anywhere like that again.
