Open a Window
04/13/09 at 12:13 PM by Rest_Easy | The television lights the room in soft phosphorescence. Shadows grow to extremes and recede in the flickering light. The mood is hushed as we lie together; an audience of two. The time has passed far enough now that I feel the difference in the night. The excited conversation at dinner contrasted to this muted attention. My awareness flutters inside me. At first it’s an uncomfortable rumble in the pit of my stomach but now I feel it traveling to a controlled extreme. Soft in its infancy I shift and control this to a rising hush. This transmits as a loud gasp, intense in its shock, and I look to my loved one. I smile, she begins to mirror me but then reverses. Her eyes grow wide as her nose contorts.
Still looking deep into her eyes I whisper, “Maybe we should open a window.” | |
