* sipping tea*

You laugh that laugh
biting your lip
and never seeming
to let
that radiance fade
unto another
the sunken pillow
stays sunken
with the imprint
of your head
your voice
our talks
burst out into the air
slowly
just slowly
descending upon
my covers
my protective side
you are
protective
I dream
what i thought
could not be dreamt
wondering
questioning
if what you feel
is real
cause i am real
only to be seen
by few
just let
boy be man
girl
be just that
sipping tea
and fairytales
on black pavement
pounding
fallen branches
not angels
into her
never knowing
if this
will ever go away

4/10/00 (not wanting to fall overboard)
