| The Heart Will Die As Well |
In dream, they meet
in the safety of the shadows
of a far off wood...
And he remembers her name
though it's never quite
the same when she wakes-
and she knows that he'd never
look at her that way
if he knew what they would say...
so she takes nothing with her,
she takes nothing home
that would give away
where she's been...
though something in the
quality of the air
when she wakes
reminds her that
she shouldn't walk away...
but this quiet thing
that passes between them
in this place of secrecy
is more than she could
hope for...
is more, she knows,
than the way
it will always be. |
