Last night
you breathed on me.
The grass
reminded me
of the faint color of the sun
on your skin.
I remember,
how we treaded lightly
on folded grass;
a reminder
of how we stayed behind
for each other.
"Like friends"
We would say together.
How our own weight
carried
our sentences
to each other
almost touching.
For T. S.
