after you broke my heart and I wounded your ego over steak and baked potatoes we walked outside and you walked me to my truck for the very last time and you said,"I don't know if I should hug you or just walk away" and I said,"do whatever you want to do" and you said,"I want to hug you" and you wrapped your arms around me and held me and told me it felt good and I agreed and you were confused because suddenly you felt something for me again and you said maybe it was because you felt so comfortable with me or maybe you were just horny and I said,"No, that can't be it. You can't be horny on a Sunday afternoon in Wichita Falls, Texas" and you laughed softly and I took off my sunglasses and then it happened we shared a magical full circle kiss like a snake eating its tail we were back to the beginning beautiful yummy tantalizing square one everything erased and made pure and whole our souls connected again you were my sweet prince and I was your girl for sure but you weren't satisfied with all of that because you analyze life to death it wasn't algebra, darling just chemistry synastry passion LOVE but that's my opinion which doesn't count not on fingers not on toes not on a calculator I know my feelings I know the deep senseless language of my heart and I'm beyond trying to figure it out and make it behave but when the kiss ended and we were talking about books I knew the distance between us was the real thing and I'm sure that's what you thought of on your drive home but I'm hoping someday when you're with a woman who doesn't love you as truly as I did and can't give the love I gave you'll remember your shy, awkward lover in all her imperfection and recall the way I brushed away your errant right eyebrow hair that day for old time's sake. |
