There are certain moments in time when the world stops spinning and all the stars stare down upon the earth in waiting.  It happens when words stop and eyes simply gaze into each other, searching souls and wishing to read thoughts.  There is a nod of a chin as breaths are held in, but the hesitation is stuttering upon each heartbeat.  One moves, then halts, unsure and doubtful. The other mirrors the flinch, but sees the hesitation and backs away.  It’s an awkward dance as hair stands on end, nerves electrified, everything is intensified, but outside this couple’s stare the world has disappeared.  A hand reaches out, breaking the tension while running through strands.  When skin touches skin, the comforts seeps in then finally lips meet lips and the universe clicks into place.
