To Paris, With Love

I have only touched you in my dreams,
sipped coffee in pavement cafes
and danced in rain covered streets
without an umbrella, but tonight,
there is more than rain falling
under your pretty skies
and we can feel your heartbeat from here.
labored breaths joining in disbelief;
souls forming an invisible line
from our hearts to yours,
holding hands to the silence of peace.
