i called it challenge
Remember when we dripped
coming in from nightıs rain
and you asked me what
this will do?
I thought my holding you
pulling our bodies together
would continue what my lips
had whispered to your skin.
You asked me why I said that.
I shrugged my shoulders flippantly
and said it was something to do.
I was afraid to ask
if you would follow me
when I told you to trust me.
And that is why I followed you
when you took my hand in yours
and led me downstairs.
