It was so much easier, making decisions in the dim lighting of that corner neighborhood bar, whiskey burning down my throat, your hand on my waist--a dare to wandering eyes, and a promise just between us as we stumbled our way home. It began to rain and my hair was curling, but I didn't care in the lamppost light of the street then, church bells tolling midnight somewhere in the distance. Everything was perfect that night, in the dark, with you.
