Where was the black in you |

Where was the black in you? Suppressed? How forceful; A parade of gleaming white, false. And yet oh how you hurt me! Coming so close, I closed my eyes, Preparing for an embrace, a kiss. But you have such eyes now, different then. Emotional atrophy. Push me away! I have wished, never dreamt, of your attraction. Where are the eyes I knew? Once, once only. When you said spontaneously: Okay. I am the two-toed wanderer |

Whats done is done to me, I cannot change it, so it's over in me. Its good to get a confirmation, thank you Kacy. I am the two-toed wanderer |

Like a shock of cold water--expecting the kiss, and finding the stranger. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
