sau·da·de (n.) : a deep, nostalgic, and melancholic longing for something or someone, often accompanied with a denied fact that what one longs will never come back.

two past lovers
hands touching
bodies colliding
like they're together still
two feet
spiraling at each end
parting ways
again and again
two mouths
yearning to feel
the missing warmth
how they used to kiss
longing for each other's fingers
but time marked their end
the two reckless
still breaking each other's chest.
