one day. doesn’t matter when i linger too long the subtleties soon disappear. the walls come down and he chatters a storm. if only to remember tomorrow the meaningful words in between. tonight we share the evening as the moon flies away and then we will be gone. till departure arrives, we’ll drink together the fainting hour and i shall listen to your tender talk.
another day. you rest your heart upon my shoulder. allow your up close, sky blue eyes to focus on our clandestine interlude. eyes listening, hearing your smile as you sound your way through the blend of blues song playing softly in the background shadows. relaxed for the evening, time carelessly continues leaving all to grasp its meaning.
one evening. pulling my wishes aside decided to walk the way. granting time to consider the stars shining in the evening sky. echoes crisp, black heels clicking to an invisible beat of love waiting. just a few minutes late, you shall be seated. will you stand? An irrelevant gesture so full of regret. if not, no; if so, yes, then maybe.
later on. decided to smile in a big way, silence overflowed with mirth. maybe it was the quiet music playing spanish guitar with passionate players of song. the casual chianti of dinner sought to lengthen the delight. strictly business, no foul play, stick to the menu. casual discussion of business and the day. stretching out the spaces in between. maybe there was something to it. those sorta souls that stand around and do the destiny’s bidding with little arrows and bows. could not help to pause and ponder. his mouth as it moves does he speak so clearly and concise with his business suit missing?
