Vulnerable Until Eve

It was before conversation;
Before their eyes had met
Through the sudden tan
Of the tree branch
As the sun set
And a damper of wind
Tied the lights and corners until they were dim.

Languishing in their thoughts,
Their eyes stepped closer
At the end of each corner,
Until the ease of his arm
Rubbed up against her shoulder.

She spoke with a gentle hesitation,
Her past left her vulnerable to another mismatch
Another lost laugh
But he was sacred to her intuition.

They walked until sunrise,
After conversation.

I loved the imagery here, and I found this piece leaving me with a very hesitantly romantic picture.

Goddess grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.

LOVE the thought of that
