When she turned her face... «Couplets: A Love Story»
MarvelousMsA5 сентября 2023When she turned her face toward mine, I saw my need
vibrating out of me to meet
her own, and the point of their connection
was a minor star, a nuclear reaction
all I cared about was trying to maintain.
Then she’d turn to someone new and kill the flame,
and I would have to wait there in the dark,
pitying myself, my stupid heart,
or chase her down and pick another fight
to get our little spark to reignite.6
