4.

relationships take work


Melbourne:

Non-descript door and saxophones, trumpets
We walked into bliss
Name games and eye-spy
It's your company I love

More laughter,
The cultured embrace of keys and its jazz
Fedoras and what's to the left of the room
I leave for the loo (it's you I love).

Upon my return there is a joke
I am unaware
I am oblivious
I don't notice

We are striding
The clouded moon follows
I am stirred and worked up in my heart
I start to cry

You are next to me.
Oh, my dear, I am so hurt! -- I say this.
But there is calm and peace
There is grace between us

Come to a completed stop-
You holdhug me.
I am still crying
I am reminded of hurts

That never really came from you.

we nutted out complications
And were convinced of God's blessings
you cannot choose as newborns
but you can as grown up people.. !



"I am reminded of hurts
That never came from you"


But from you
There is the solace and the space
The relief in the understood
And the realisation of how selfish we don't want to be

Thank you -- I say this
I love you -- this too
This is why I am interstate with you



Having the break of my life!
