each other (I dont believe in love)

Falstaff · Jan 3, 2005, 03:33 PM

staring off into the limitless void of space
I held her tightly and caught my breath

neither one of us felt the winter chill upon our face
on the hilltop over the city we existed between life and death.

her bright green eyes reflect the glare of the neon glow
I searched for something I could call joy in her face

she wrapped her arms even tighter and leaned to look far below
"with or without me", she said, "you wont settle down in one place"

I felt some guilt and almost felt remorse, but I wanted her to see
she and I were walking the same path in our journey through life.

I wanted her so much to know that I truly cared for her and she for me.
but niether of us could ever stay still long enough to be husband or wife.

the irony of your terrible desire is that we never find our own peace
we find an oasis in the troubled world and find some time for each other.

What is love she always asked and kissed me on the cheek
we find our happiness and our togetherness as friends and as lovers.

somehow I have to find my own way home if not now then in a week.
with our without you she said with desperation, if not with you...then perhaps with another.

I have heard this before I said to myself, and silently kissed her again
she braced for a moment then surrendered her body to me, as a lover and perhaps as a friend.

Wow, I don't know whether that makes me feel good or sad...

Nice one.
