Was It the Steaks

i spoke her name sweetly
she responded with curses and finger gestures
i stopped speaking sweetly and backed away
like a stranger.
you like me I don't like you
stand your distance as I wish not
to turn to stone!
I walked away and never thought of seeing her again

years later....

I speak you as friend?
she frowned and rolled her eyes
the skies are kindlier than I wish to be
might these words cloud your days
and bring storms to your life.
