That Moment

That Moment

When inertia
rushes through your body,
sending a surge
from  the tips of your hair
to the edges of your toenails.
Your body has tensed
with surprise and shock,
an unbidden smile
creeps upon your face,
marking the moment
in your mind
forever.
The moment
when everything
fell into place,
a fantastic game
of Tetris,
when victory is at hand.
All you need to do
is drop the last piece,
for you already know
that it will fit.
Yet, for whatever reason,
you are still scared,
and I can see why.
But, fret not,
for though
all these battles
have led up to
this moment,
the battle
is already won.

The door is open,
just as it always has been.
All you need to do now
is step inside
out of the cold
and into
my warm arms.
