The body came near, her eyes got bigger. Skin of golden red. She hadn't notice what she was doing.
She sat in the edge of the bed pursuing the icebreaker, as I folded up and starred at the two moons she sweared it all for the best. 'You come by so fast, unexpected- it never last- but tomorrow will be the same.' Her body contoured into a delicate mannequin. She tilted her slightly back, faced the wall and began to ask; 'how'd I not know.' She spoke but I couldn't concentrate all I perceived was her silhouette. After the sounds there came a silence, she had said a lot yet my mind was undisturbed. She headed for the bathroom and I went for another beer, did I sense the end was near? Time woulda tell, I reassured as I walked by the old church. 'Don't start thinking now it's never done any good with these sorta things anyhow.' And I walked onto the bay, where we had first laid. For a moment I thought I saw glance beaming from across town, I wished it was her. The ferris wheel had stopped for the night all the couples hand in hand walking passed vibrated with the possibility of joy.
They can't expect much else, I don't know where we're headed and at times like these I wish were a god. The night looked endless and darker than it had before. I walked on without finding much help. 'Was she playing a dirty trick? Distorted imagines ran my mind< i could've never tell, just my confusion grew deeper with every breath.
Three days later, my money was up, I had drank so much I could hardly walk when I saw someone I known before. I hurried through the street the horde of people was thick and busy, steaming with pretension. "Where you been you havn't called, you look so pale and oh those huge bags." Dumbly I replied something about an old white scarf.
I went home that night after my drinking bout to get some shuteye and noticed some stuff had left, I wondered if it really did grow legs or with what will she had--but then there was a knock on my window. This girl said hi, a clean svelte body strode as a gracious puppet.
