Maybe
Unsure,
I wait.
Will I see
her? Can I
have these hopes?
She calls me
hers. I wish
I knew
the truth.
She loves
him? Not me,
does she?
Maybe.
I pick her
up. Lets go
to my place
to drink
a few? She smiles,
ok, on our way.
We have to be
quiet. Do we?
Maybe.
Rip the strip,
twist the tip,
take my sip, I
watch her
lips. I wait
for her to
show me
love.
Maybe.
Undercover, we lie
with each other. Alone
as one, we two
sing forever.
Maybe.
Oily sin-
ful lips, naked
fingertips leave
a stain. I’m so
naked,
so plain. Lick my
wounds. She says,
don’t worry, I
love you. I’m so
apprehensive. I wish
I knew her
true. As you do
I to am so
naked
and vulnerable. You know
my fears. I’m soaked
with invisible tears. We are
one, for this moment.
Please
don’t let it
ever end. I love
you so,
you know?
Maybe.
We may be
naked
and vulnerable. You know
I’ll always be
here.
