We Both Knew

When we first met no fireworks went off but there was that one day when suddenly I touched your hand and something awoke within It wasn’t much longer before I was physically suffering a baffling burning urgency to tell you that I love you Stalling techniques exhausted only to discover how inexplicably you felt it too all so soon and so surreal As if… at some instinctive level we’d been in some distant past a couple torn apart by some pointless war or other disaster How else to explain it AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Posted on January 8, 2018
