Life On Mars

And walking, he led her through a blizzard of characters...

She didn't want to be with him forever and always;

she wanted to be with him for the moment

and to have the moments last forever.

Because those moments were the awareness

that they both needed so badly.

She was aware of him and he was aware of her.

And in being so aware of him she was consequently

aware of his awareness of her, making her aware of herself.

Aware of each other, aware of themselves.

Awareness. A funny thing.

Always there, not always able to be put into words.

She can't put him into words.
