Dream of Reality

She opens the door after she hears someone had been knocking
Just taking out her hair and getting ready she sees who she opened to
Her eyes flashed for a moment and then she gets control of herself
But she seemed incapable of speech- so she made her eyes quiet too

So he spoke, just a simple ‘Hi Kate’ was all he managed
Including her name was a bit of sting on his selfish and self-imposed part
Her name- one thing that he knew how to use because he didn’t often
Playing at her weakness the only way he knew to get her attention

Swallowing down her pride and hurt and anger and pain she says ‘Hi’ back
She doesn’t include any name to make a point of her own creation
Knowing he knew it was something she used often, the exclusion of it stung
She then stepped outside walking past him, half wishing him to follow- half not

His ride had left him on the opening of the door, so he followed her down
Where she was going he did not know, but after 5 minuets in silence he stopped
He took her shoulder and spun her to look at him, on a down slopping sidewalk
Starting to speak she cut him off ‘We’re almost there, it’s best to keep moving’

He let go and she continued on, they found their way to the canal and its bridge
Stopping at the empty canal bridge she finally turned to look at him ‘Yes?’
It left him thinking on how such a simple word could sound so cold and hurt
‘I needed to speak with you . . . Kate’ he looked up at the air of her name

‘What could you possibly say that you haven’t already?’ she didn’t look at him
In his thoughts he wondered how could she hurt him with nothing more than words
He took a step closer to the person he had hurt beyond feeling- for he knew he had
Raising her stubborn chin he said ‘Kate, could you  . . . could . . . forgive me . . .’

Catching all his words even though the last was barely even a whisper
She looked up into his eyes, pain overflowing she could do nothing but cry
Silently she cried and allowed him to hold her to him, his tears hit her hair
Finally she spoke, looking up with tearstained cheeks ‘You knew that I would’

At this sentiment, he laughed quietly ‘I started to doubt when I saw your face’
‘Well,’ she countered ‘Well, you must admit I was surprised to see you of all people’
He looked at her knowing she knew that was not what he had meant, but left it
She smiled, enjoying her elusiveness she knew he saw through, finally feeling right

‘So, what now?’ she asked him, ‘I dunno’ he returned ‘How very inventive of you’
As he laughed at her sarcasm he took her hand and walked her to the benches
When they were seated there, side by side- she turned her head to the river
He brushed her hair back from her face and she turned again to look upon his face

‘Do you love me again? Why did you come back- I never thought that you would’
While her words stung both he and she, he answered to tell her the truth of the event
‘Kate,’ again catching her undivided attention ‘I’ve always loved you,’ said he
‘And now I know too- we are supposed to be’ ‘Oh,’ she whispered quietly, hung head

Frantically he looked to her- to see if he had said something wrong or she didn’t feel that
‘Well,’ she finally whispered out ‘I prayed for that, for you to know, know like I do’
Then he looked at her- who was it that he had won, everything she did astounded him
‘What?’ the worry in her voice brought him back, ‘I love you’ he said ‘I know’ she said

I stuck my bare hand into your rip cage and fished around until I found your heart ripped it out tore it apart while saying You dont need this anymore
