The Most Beautiful Moment

with the car idling
and parked in a stationary
position,
the only thing that can be heard
over the hum of the engine
is our ragged breathing.
the night is darker
than any one i ever witnessed before.
the only light is coming from the dashboard.
foreshadowed in the darkness is our futures of
pain and heartbreak and inadequacy.
contemplating, thinking
of all that you've ever said
and done,
i realize, in our most beautiful moment together,
that you deserve everything you're gonna get.
