Part two in the trilogy

**********************************************************

~~~~SHE~~~~

She

appeared out of nowhere,

a sweet faced soft voiced blur

that smelled of clouds and rainbows,

smiling shyly at him,

constructing in him the strongest urge to touch

her hair, her skin...

find some way to get in...

and make her his only sin.

She

came along and held his hand

face open as she vowed to understand

all of the jibberish and confusion he uttered into her ear

in the early dark daylight hours of the morning...

surprising himself that he had so much to tell,

spilling his sorrow and anger and regret in her soul

so that

she

could transform it into a bright light

that she swathed him in...

forgiving him instantly for his trespasses and misgivings-

he never knew how redeeming a confession could be.

She

came forth

and gave him all that she had,

love apparent in her touch and kiss

as her eyes whispered promises of always-

by his side when the world beat him down,

wiping tears of frustration from his eyes

and hate from his brow

to hold it in her hands and crush it into oblivion...

vehemently blaspheming those who opposed him.

She

scared him silly with her honesty-

love always has to leave,

so before it left him, he foolishly left her,

purposely betraying her and daring her to stay...

praying her to stay

and prove to be true in the ways

that all else had went astray.

heated by her kisses and freed by her touch...

he had grown to love it too much,

frightened by the feeling only ever envoked by

she.
