Strangers

By asailorsangel

They spent the night with strangers
Locks shattered and walls crumbled
With the force of the unguarded emotion

Only the shadows watched as they
Seductively removed each others
Masks

They slowly gently flowed through
The cavern of dimmed light a dance
Of lovers to unfold

The silenced whispered in amazement
The dark stood in awe of how time
Stopped for this man and this woman

There they stood bare-naked
Strangers in the night that
Met in the space between

Now left with more questions
Than answers in a world
That had no walls.
