we were on my backs
looking for light
in pitch blackness
a sliver of silver
the only glow
glazing the leap into nothingness
immobile in our bags
we lay like wingless butterflies
eyes wide shut
the air fogged
with each exhale
then one winked
another fluttered
black melted and blitzed with light
leaping and playing
there was soundless laughter
in an absolute void
electric
you smiled
i cried
far was the furthest star
but it was closer than you are
