I will be your Geisha. |

You're quite a serene fellow.. You speak as if you've been through it all, having never fallen in love. Somehow still it is your endless flaw, that sends me shivering down a river, so pure still you may know it .. you may know of your perfection a little too much. As I begin to disagree you put your index finger vertically across my lips and ask.. "Who are you to argue?" I couldn't give you the key whilst there is no lock, though you're not sure yet of that, you're.. Still clueless to the fact that I'm on to you..I know what you're thinking.. You mentioned your taste for the Geisha, the ancient tea serving dance.. Crickets hum of the evening, pretending that I'm not listening..that I'm pretty apathetic toward the world. But all the time thinking.. I couldn't possibly live without your drawling.. and your natural hair carressing your forehead. Perhaps you have been through it all, though never fallen in love.. maybe that's the tragedy, the melancholy that glimmers in your eyes. You asked me if I'd like to kiss.. As I did not decline, you smiled, and turned your face away.. You were happy just knowing I would. And I knowing you wouldn't... "Not yet", you tell me, "drink your tea instead". |

This is really great. I've actually done that before. Asking if I may have a kiss and them being contempt with just the approval. drives chicks crazy. =) Great stuff Joe "The worst vice is advice" (Al Pacino, devil's advocate) |

Yes this reminds me of "Memoirs" as well. Lovely write, and so descriptive. |

This made me smile too.... You were happy just knowing I would. And I knowing you wouldn't... "Not yet", you tell me, "drink your tea instead". especially this, he sounds intriguing. Maree fate is not just |
