For What It's Worth

she came over last night
wearing a green wool sweater
sleeves rolled up and hair down
bustline buttons barely hanging on
squeezed into painted on shorts
as usual, similar to the ones when we first met
it had been some time
hadn’t heard from her in a while
we made a decision
then lost touch
so good to see her again
to lock eyes like we used to
my faint eyes peering into precious blue
our lips slowly dancing till dawn
with the dimly lit street lights
trees blowing soft in the spring breeze
our hands interlaced
feeling my blood up on her hip
and my arms squeezed tight around her body
while rocking side to side
two-stepping to the beat of our hearts
holding her close like this
feeling her warm breasts full up on me
remembering everything we ever had
the moment frozen as the earth stood still
sex wasn’t imminent this time
because I knew it would not last
this would soon just be a memory
holding her close like this
the sun started to rise too soon
time to part ways
she left me wondering,
wondering if this was the final goodbye.
