When We Were Two


When we were two
the universe was young
it laughed with a childlike giggle
and everything was beautiful
we played together
in its endless oceans
and lounged
amongst its hammock of light

When we were two
the universe was innocent
the stars were our nightlights
the planets, our toys
we'd run
through the meteor showers
and stay up late
watching new life form

We didn't know what love was then
eons have passed between us
infinite space and emptiness
but neither time nor distance
can keep us apart
moving at the speed of light
our black holes coalescing
and now...we are one
