It was indeed
the time of
cruelty and horror
Our
innocence was not so
easily lost.
we clung on to it
hungrily
like spoiled children
extending
our days in the sun
Yes it was
stupid
and pathetic
and selfish being young
no we did
not deserve such pleasures
But by what right
could we deny the deafening
cry of your beauty
the eloquent
swell of her breast
or
the dark allure
of my hunger
Who could ignore
the call from the heart
the racing of our pulses
the giddy whirl
of friendship
a stolen kiss
in a dark
parked car
of two young boys
and
the sweet loneliness
of a talented
girl
this is perhaps
not as dumb
as all
that
It was a time for firsts
where one stands on the perilous edge of
youth
thinking forever
is a long time
It was she that gave my heart away
before I ever met you
it was I that tried to get it back
but it would never belong
to anyone
else
ever
again
