Transformative

I think about that time
when I got to hold you
in my arms for just a minute—
the earth didn’t shake under our feet
the stars didn’t lose their twinkle in the sky
the mountains didn’t stop their quest for height
the depths of the oceans remained the same
and yet—-
while surrounded by everything
that was changed by nothing
one minute with you
in my arms
reshaped me and now
I’m lost

without you
