for rules for fears

new girl new ideas

the conversating on

music movies books

read/not read/discarded

of ambitions & ideas

then the difficult comes

wishes & hopes

between the sheets

this last one sat under trees

summer easy days

no other ears around

as she laid down lines

this not that that not this

I could hear the breeze

there in the leaves

as the silence grew

long between us

we picked up the picnic

I dropped her off at hers

met that night for the last time

everything dusted done & gone

for rules for fears rather than

grow near some kind of loving
