How did we manage
To draw this out
For more than a decade?
Emotional
Mental
Amnesia
Hypnosis
Denial
Avoidance
Delusions
Illusions
Hiding in plain sight
Pretending to be friends.
Just friends
Never just friends
Friends who want to
Take each other’s clothes
Off
Friends who want to
Marry each other
Be there for each other
Hear about each other’s
Day
Hear about anything
And everything and
The most random
Whatevers
Forever and ever
And ever afters…
Without you, life is
Mundane.
With you, the mundane
Comes to life. And I exist
On a happier plain.
