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.
