Enticement
By Jimita
Of course you remembered the crowd, the laughter at my expense, my hot shamed tears unable to hide the inevitability of our confederation Chivalry still exists you showed me that day, as you slew my tormentors with a single look, past the cacophony of mob rule and juvenile amusement How well I recall that glance, seeing beyond everything, and you, capturing my gaze in return, as we forged a bond more impregnable than time Yes, we loved, but loved as children, too young to comprehend the electricity between us, the world dissolving into mere wavelets against the pier, too ignorant to see the real and the ideal Our lives diverged; thrown together again, I question our bourgeois security, so carefully constructed of mortar and stone. Let us return to the half-concealed berth, as we touch once more, unencumbered by shame. Expert at sex -- but virgin to love, I long for the sanctity of your caress You, my stalwart champion, still defend my sullied honour. I am redeemed by your virtue, our covenant purified, deliverance by associationResponse #3 to Chris Ingham's Love Letters series. Written January 19th, 2002 © on Jan 18 2002 06:22 PM PST 0 • 8
