Rencontre

December 8, 2015

First thing she said was “hi,

“don’t tell me you love me”

then

“you should have kissed me by now.”

 

He smiled

and knew she meant to be

dramatic

nervous

irritated with morning traffic

and talk radio,

he knew

she would be forever

imprinted in his memory.

She didn’t have to say

a word

enough of fucking words already, he thought

“just don’t talk”

he said

and opened up his arms

like an old friend

she hadn’t seen

in years.

      found it in a notebook thank you x

  2. Nice work. You found this in a notebook. You probably throw away stuff that others would cling to as their gems.

      I never throw away my notebooks, they’re piled up in my closet, in chests, under clothes, secret stash! I told my husband he has to bury me with them (dead serious) lol.

      1. Said the same to my wife. Bury me with all my work. They are a part of us. Weird aren’t we?
