our room

just a room
full of cushions
thick with comfort
and warmth

surrounded by walls
padded with books
full of knowledge
and hope

windows stream light
that combs through
our hair

searching for our secret thoughts

we cuddle close
to each other
deep under the spell
of our whispered voices

sharing the
ideas
of people
who were never
there

learning about
each other
in the reactions
of the past

rewriting the future to-gether
