the day came
when she stopped
asking,
begging,
for something,
friday's love
used to have,
and
can never give.
the night came
when she
never asked
for something,
someone,
a helpless distraction,
a lovely contrast.
then midnight came
rushing like the blood
circulating within her self,
he came knocking,
like a real stranger,
mingling with
another,
and opened the
sealed green envelope.
