Our time has been brief by Limbika

Our time has been brief, but it cannot be over

Even though our time has been brief, you have moved me.
There is an undeniable connection between us, one that few can ever hope to find.
A platonic friendship, with ambitions.
Sexual tension, without sex.
We can share a moment, an experience, a bed,
Without any discomfort and without sex.
We share hopes, the same ones.
Hopes that one of us will send a strong enough signal.
A sign either way; you do want me to kiss you; you don't want me to kiss you.
An uncertainty hangs in the air between us.
We are uneasy and yet easy.
Our friendship is enough, but is there more?
Finally curiosity takes over.
The kiss is so full of passion, of wanting, of needing.
Friendship is no longer enough, and it needn't be.
One kiss confirms all our wondering and ends the uncertainty.
Hours later, our bodies still catching up with our minds, and our minds with our bodies, we lie together.
Both wondering at our hesitations and talking as we always have.
Now with the same ease as always, but, somehow, with more than ever.
Our time has been brief, but it cannot be over.
