We shared something
It was you and me and the
death of my denial

To kiss and trace hands
Breathe deep, and close eyes savoring the in-be-tweens

That I am loving and soft has been concealed
and used for fodder

And you, with deep eyes and wide smiles
Were the sole witness
The first to seize and relieve
Not a knight- just a friend

It wasn’t rescue, it was acknowledge

We shared something
It was you and me
and the death of my denial

It is alright now, we have continents between bodies
You have roots and plans and lives
Girls made beautiful in opposites of me

Still-



We share something
