#flirtations
I look at you .. your countenance and demeneour .. how one eyes follows the other and curls of your hair address this courtship unknowingly .. and at a gaze when all at once, my eyes brush off your glance, . hiding in plain sight, what our gentle nudges couldn't hide .. You do not say .. in fear and worry for what might, I do not ask .. illusions of my habits overcomes.. and yet, we nurture that infinitesimally small fire .. hoping meekly in our hearts .. that something or some force would cater to our reconciliation .. but it never does.

Courtships at dawn
Pancakes and french toast. She had a sweet tooth for mornings laying flat on her back. Just like yours, cotton wrinkles indented on freckles. Saliva soaked collarbones, last nights tequila on your tongue. He’d roll you over, breakfast taco. Kiss your neck, turn it purple. Smirk covered coffee, smoke lingering 'round chocolate covered sleepy eyes. All you've ever known, simple sweets and bacon grease; she kept you on your' toes. "I'll be back for the summer," and he'll pretend you’re more than just a morning of goodbyes.
