And now, let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress; adventure

Your Hand In Mine

Silence.
Five people together, all of us friends.
There is never a moment of silence
Until now.
Eight minutes, seventeen seconds, and
Complete darkness.
The first strike of the melody hit,
and our breathing became synchronized.
Five people.
Despite the darkness
We could see each other.
We see each other.
Our brains, our hearts, our lungs
All connected
With inexplicable strength and tenacity
The strings bound us from five corners
Five people
Two women, three men
Little more than acquaintances until this point
Forever connected
Forever bound
Until that last chord rings dry.
