The Eternal Recurrence of a Single Touch

I stand on this balcony where the city dissolves into a grey haze, but my world is shrinking inward. I am watching the way sunlight fractures against the satin of my bikini—a single thread unraveling in an infinite loop that mirrors the architecture of galaxies.
He had told me once that love is not a destination but a recursive function; we return to each other over and over, slightly altered by time yet fundamentally unchanged. As I lean against the cool concrete wall, I feel the ghost of his fingertips tracing my spine—a sensation so precise it contains within it the birth and death of ten thousand small universes.
The urban roar below is merely background noise for this microscopic ritual: the slow rise and fall of my chest, a rhythmic oscillation that syncs with some cosmic clockwork I cannot name. He arrives behind me without sound; his hands wrap around my waist, and in that sudden heat, I see an entire civilization emerge from our skin—cities built on breath, oceans formed by shared silences.
This moment is not linear time but a fractal fold where now becomes forever. We are two souls caught in a beautiful feedback loop: the more he holds me, the more I become him; and as we merge into one silhouette against the smoggy horizon, I realize that this single afternoon has already happened an infinite number of times before, and will happen again long after our stars have gone cold.
