we shared the night extraordinary
morning came
took you for breakfast
we dared not look into our eyes
we ate sans talk
as if we were merely
sharing a table
the stars which glittered last night
for us
have vanished with the day
and what we did then
we thought it was so right
thought no one would know
but morning has arrived and
we know

awkward.............
as they say

the nightstand rank of evening smoke and
over ripe merlot
we woke up entwined in stained white sheets
with horses breath, I wondered if he'd
kiss me anyhow, but he shrank into
the bathroom and quickly made his exit home

What should have been a one night stand ended in divorce 10 years later. Wish I would have shrank off to the bathroom.  Ah, the BS we do not to be alone.
Jerry you take us places we haven't even been and make it feel familiar. Now, that is writing!

I hear you Emma, most of the times the morning after, with the hangover, dry mouth and aching, skinned penis, both parties usually want to just get the hell out of there. Heh.Heh

Now Lori, THAT is a compliment, and I thank you very much for it.
