Closet
October 24, 2014
Darkness,
Wrapped around us
Holding our secrets.
We stared,
Our eyes met
Filling with stars.
We touched,
Hand in hand
Creating our security.
We cried,
Thoughts of the world
Overtaking our brains.
We smiled,
Stretched wide and far
Remembering our friendship.
We fought,
His voice filled with fear
That my words were not true.
We forgave,
Apologies paved over
The differences we had made.
We hugged,
Arms around each other
Finalizing the bond.
We stood,
Closed our eyes
And took a deep breath.
Together,
We opened the door.
