This Surface Lust

We came together in the brazen maze of autumn days where everything was rearranging and changing
in blinding bursts of latent feelings and emotions revealed and uncovered from deep fears of exposure
And in deepest reflection there's a realization I should have found a way to you beyond the distance and fears and unknowns and chaos of emotions.
Yesterdays rusted secrets no longer suppressed, the sins and errors, broken oaths and resistance set aside to save our sanity and from this point bargained a desperate and shaky truce.
And from this gloaming leaped a connection of spirits void of phrases of regret .... and sharing stories and words unknown to previous others, sacrificing symmetry for a single reason to wish for a moment of today, believe in the possibility of tomorrow while daring to imagine a century of tomorrows.
Hurdling the seismic waves
Calling on lost and bartered faith for survival
Pruning overgrown acreage of forgotten sentiment
To forge pockets of healing light
To revive and reprise daring sequences from treacherous dreams and move far beyond this surface lust.

May/June 2026

Part fact, part fiction. Over the passing of time, some of the facts occasionally begin to feel like fiction and vice versa. How I remember events may or may not be quite the same as what the other person remembers.
