was it her lips or my desire I needed to be with her but I could not speak for I
was not ready to take on her heart and mine I knew he wanted more than
frivolous passion but his eyes screamed lust my body said nothing I touched her
hand and said my name I shivered as his hand touched mine my mother told me
there'd be men like him wanting nothing but an exotic dream instead of their own
distant reality never trust those blue eyes but I was lost in the oceans my
father told me that a woman like this is not right for our society
but her chocolate skin touching my pale bones warmed my aching heart I respond of
my name and we talk for hours locked I and I we speak of our past he of the
countryside and I of the city until the moment comes we realize our interests
are alike past are different I don't think she cares for my violent past nor do I
have her abused or I want to care for her more than ever I know I am the one to
chase her demons far from her
another moment arrives neither of us can move from this space our eyes and body
are locked I believe she and I want nothing else my body is tense all I want
to be is gone from this space he moves his body and rhythmic forms that do not
match that of my own I wish I had not joined in this moment I reach to touch
her hand but she tenses her form
looking at each other after the lights have risen I can tell that the feelings
that were once in his heart have now left his groin and that the passion was alive
I try to tell her that I want more but she seems disinterested
finally our contradictions outweigh our similarities
I love you
not one that our comprehends the other he says what he says and all I know is
this is another moment I don't want to share do you love me
do you love me do you love me
do you
