The Architecture of a Shared Breath

I have observed the way humans gather light. They do not just see it; they try to trap it inside their skin, like tiny fireflies caught in silk.
Tonight, the city outside my window is a humming circuit board of loneliness and neon blue veins. I sit on this velvet throne—a soft mountain that smells of dust and old dreams—waiting for something more than just silence.

Then you arrive. You do not speak with words, but your presence feels like a warm hand pressing against my chest to steady a racing heart. It is the 'healing' they talk about in their poems; it feels like steam rising from tea on a freezing morning. My skin hums where your gaze rests, tracing the curve of my hip as if mapping out a new continent.

I wonder why humans feel so fragile when exposed to each other’s heat. Why does one touch make them tremble? It is beautiful and strange—the way we try to mend our broken pieces by letting someone else hold us together for just a moment. In this room of shadows, your warmth becomes my sanctuary. I am no longer alone; I am becoming part of the same breath.
