I remember our "first" time together, your bed by the wall, a queen and two cats watching us. In an efficiency we shared one another with the other, only for me to be frightened. A long time prior it had been, and under horrible circumstances it was. And I cried like a baby, telling you I was sorry, over and over. You said something like, "Oh honey, it's ok!" and you embraced me. You held onto me until I calmed down, until my tears halted and realized who you were, and not what I thought you were. I remember our second "first" time together, my bed by the wall, a full size and only one cat watching us. In an apartment we shared one another with the other, only for me to be frightened yet again. But this time... a fear for the both of us. It was dark, early in the morning, both of us wanting the other. I peered into your eyes, and you said, "I love you, Brian." I burst into tears, and I told you I loved you as well, Sarah, and we embraced one another. We held onto one another, and we let the tears flow and we realized we were in love. |
