as Eve stood in her backyard with a basket of dirty clothes at her feet

her mind kept wandering back to that love letter Howard sent to her that was so sweet

but still : it was impossible for them to meet

the timing wasn't right

her and her husband had just had a fight

everything had been going polite

                                 [Eve took another sip of Diet Rite]

until he found out about our work night at the Hilton

                                         last winter

it was just a business meeting

                                  [grabs the basket of clothes]

i had no idea that two friends enjoying a cup of coffee could be considered cheating

but he keeps telling me that i'm not taking your central heating seriously

i guess i should, but our time together is usually so fleeting

                                         [grabs the Tide]

that it's hard to believe our casual greetings

could change the tide of our seating arrangement

but after this estrangement

i'm starting to realize you supplied more than just eating

                                          conversation



                                                                                    love,

                                                                                    eve
