Our Love Forgives

CATEGORY

romance

Love
We fight over
Then love we make up under
Fresh linens
Enthralled there after
finding ourselves withdrawn
Avoided all evening
Who cares
Selfish in separate rooms
Up stairs, down stairs, hall rails trekking with cold stares,
cradling attitudes recluse
Apologizes at each others door we feel not to introduce
Just wilful glances that fail to meet
Without contact
our eyes too stubborn 'til we're reunited with touches
You're in my way
Faucets, glasses of water
When one passes the other, intentionally brushes
Spills a little love
Our sensible nature rediscovers
Passionate encounters
Laughs
Salacious paper towels
Hugged against the kitchen counter
Soaking up
The exaltation sparked off emotional clashes
physically forgiven
The heat between heeling disputes
back & forth
ceasing searches for evidence to refute
Giving in to us
with I'm sorry that if ever again we won't hastily succumb
to pettiness derived from arguments dumb
Red or blue
Allowing ourselves to defuse
Incendiary hearts wired to a love neither wants to lose
