After We'd Been in the Cave Over an Hour
Long after our eyes adjusted
To the small, round beams of light
That shined on thick white columns
And reflected the rings of drips into shallow pools
After we'd become accustomed
To the resonant dim
At last we found a place to sit
And turned off our lights
And listened to the dark
The only sound, the astonished heart
Persistent breath, and the drip
Drip, drip of stalactites doing their patient work
How I longed to bring us all
Into the cave where we are forced to forget
Any differences the light might suggest
How I loved the way my senses stretched out
To feel the other beating hearts
Imagine we could do this every night
Could feel the other hearts in the dark
All of them beating like our own
Imagine no storms could touch us
Imagine we forgot it could ever be any other way
Your heart, my heart, beating wild
Listening for each other
To the small, round beams of light
That shined on thick white columns
And reflected the rings of drips into shallow pools
After we'd become accustomed
To the resonant dim
At last we found a place to sit
And turned off our lights
And listened to the dark
The only sound, the astonished heart
Persistent breath, and the drip
Drip, drip of stalactites doing their patient work
How I longed to bring us all
Into the cave where we are forced to forget
Any differences the light might suggest
How I loved the way my senses stretched out
To feel the other beating hearts
Imagine we could do this every night
Could feel the other hearts in the dark
All of them beating like our own
Imagine no storms could touch us
Imagine we forgot it could ever be any other way
Your heart, my heart, beating wild
Listening for each other
