I see her again the next night
before the depths of the sea
as the moon gazed down upon us.
I still remember her question
I'm brave enough to try first.

It will take as long as we want
It's the only answer I can think of

Her face is still, eyes gazing
    straight out toward the distant
    horizon where moon and water meet
  I try again

We'll create and conceive and revel
for as long as we want because the
universe won't care and neither will
we when we're gone.
   Exactly
      It's a quiet answer but it's
      positive, assuring, calm.

                    Every universe has to die
again with          every person will perish
the universe        taking her ideas and
thing.              his stories with it.

      I wonder now
      would she stand
      there if I
      weren't here to
      see it?

   Why do you always talk about this?

I know the magic's been
broken now -- this is
one of those moments from
an artsy film where
the girl and I exchange
profundities that only
graduate students in
philosophy get and the
poor little undergrads
get headaches.  

    But I'm not playing.
    She can live in her
    little emo world all
    she wants and I won't
    care.

                nor should you
                everyone dies
        so        everything
        what?     ends

Hey doll.... I absolutely love your style.... your ability to be in multiple places at once yet making it easy for the reader to follow you into those places with ease.
