Urban Lovers

Two bodies 
                      bound together
          The room may be 
small
          but their hearts 
are spacious
       and full of joy
and
desire
        Old disagreements 
have faded with the 
        dying sunlight
                         hearts beat
    rapidly
          lovemaking has
        soothed the aching
pain
      both of them have known
Their eyes misty
        Their minds delighted
by the touch of flesh to 
     flesh
  What others think 
matters about as much
         as the dust on the 
window
     Which blocks the view 
temporarily
      Before it is brushed 
away 
      reveling the  urban
scene
        to souls who 
are taking delight
        in touching each other
as they relieve
                the hurt which
mortal life always, always brings
