We sat and talked like friends Easy conversation flowing Back and forth... like a lazy summer afternoon spent lounging on a hammock swinging to and fro... we shared laughs, smiles and secrets intimacies uncounted without our wolf's clothes without our ever present armor just us sitting on a bench outside a familiar place somehow new in this hazy noon daylight the sun beating down illuminating our talk illuminating the incandescent truth ringing clear a passing trolley whistles in unison with my stinging soul wounded Sensing my destruction, The weight of all that's done Some things left undone "I'm really starting to like it here" he says with a slight smile and I catch a glimpse of the truth his insecurity "I'm really starting to like you" I think he meant to say. ~empressrouge 5/01 |
