if we will meet

if we will meet

let us meet quickly

be friends before the introductions end

run our words, sentences, stories together

because we are the same

but not entirely

 

if we are attracted

one to the other

let it be flashy

a flash flood of emotions and pheremones

a flash fire from the second

we work up the courage

to brush carelessly against each other

to see where a brush fire leads

 

if you come with me

into my home

into my bed

accept the gives

and the here for the takings

enjoy enjoying each other

 

if you must leave

and you must

and we both know it

do not regret or dismiss

or expect movie-endings

or miracles

 

when you go

go with a kiss

and a smile

and you'll have your memories

and I'll keep mine

until and unless

we meet again
