PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Weeks haven't passed since once upon that day

She and I walked awkwardly along the concrete border

Chain hoops looming over with a silent night for slumber

Settling in a kind of romantic hope and/or freedom

I told her stories, she listened without much response

Laughs were shared as were spells of quiet contemplation

We made our way to a rigid playground to pass the time

I made a fool of myself without much effort on my behalf

She didn't make much of a sound as I cluttered to the ground

A moment of affection was taken into consideration

We walked on solemnly

Night lights were kind of frightening

Noise radiated from everywhere as nothing made a move

Her arm crossed with mine in a twinge of concern

It was hard to get close while on the move

We came to familiar setting for me in the distant past

Just for the sake of surprise I toppled to my memory

and she didn't hesitate to lay with and lean against me

I hadn't felt quite so illuminated in some time

Like a light hanging in a room the tenants had just forgotten

It was warm and cozy and the quiet didn't stop the flow

Stars were shining in a vibrant way, city lights miles away

Bats fluttered nearby, drawing closer and lifting further

She flinched once or twice, I just held her a little closer

Suspicious echoes were offbeat all around us

We raised our heads to take a cautious glance

Nothing present, we just squeeze a little tighter

Lips met and tongues danced at intervals in between

My spine quivered as I struggled to say something, anything

We played a game with each other

and her laughs and her words were a symphony to me

Sadly, at last, the idle hand of the clock struck twelve

Midnight had risen and it was time to make some kind of exit

We spoke kind of softly and everything felt okay

Driving these winding roads had rarely been so painful

Upon return, a greeting with an attack was received in return

Friends and fellows poured from the trees to say a short hello

At the end of it all, I kissed her goodnight

And by the end of the night, I suppose I won the game

A flash of green and serene goodbye

As she laughed and yelled back to me as I ran for the door

All was well.
