The words slip

Fingers drag slowly over palms, the sound they make
Is deafening in its silence
Looks linger, and we're wrapped in the gaze of the other
"Peter Pan said that a kiss is a powerful thing
But these words are similarly powerful things" she said
Filling the uncertain air with the right words
The only true words to be found in the universe at this very moment
Pianos and saxophones and muffled breath would be the only substitutes
For what could be considered real
In the universe.
