you sat across from me, and we silently nursed our drinks. i would catch your eyes on me, and we let the words to be said slip from our lips to the floor. unsaid. we would make jokes about what it was we really needed to say, but the fact of the matter was, it wasnt so much of a need as a. constant presence.
the band began to play and you smiled. revolution earth and your body alive, your feet aching. i grinned, because i always loved this metamorphosis. you grabbed my hand and yanked me out of my seat. we nestled in the midst of the crowd, inhibitions shed.
your eyes closed, you were lost in the. song. but your hand to my skin. to keep you to. this earth. the colours like stars and we danced, souls in the ocean. life.
and i finally spoke. whispered. "thought i lost you"
your eyes never opening, your feet never wavering. but the volume lowered and even in the din i could've sworn i heard you whisper
'no. never again.'
