Only For One Night

Janet Kuypers
01/19/10

I had left everything
and I stumbled upon you

I didn’t know what I was looking for
but when I came to you
I thought
                 from here
I’ve got a nice view
and I thought that was enough

you had the same anger in you as I
and I didn’t think anything of it
until I was alone
and saw that we could be
angrily, passionately together
even if it was only for one night
