Pretend

So we'll play this game
both pretend we're unaquainted.

Pretend we never shared
a balcony of forbidden touch

leading nowhere
  leading everywhere...

Pretend we never shared
tortilla soup and conversation

Deep in the night
Both lonely

Both needy,
  Both afraid

Still...

Author notes

So much conversation

    Good

    This poetic trip though the heart is, thought provoking, descriptive, and creative all rolled up into a beautiful poem. Your word choices elegantly define what you wish to capture and convey to the reader. You have taken the humanity that is part of our life and transferred that quality to this poem.
