Once

I watch.

I watch her lips tremble, as she speaks of the delight that she calls home.

Pupils dilated.

Skin shaken, pricks of excitement swelling like buds on her blooming flesh.

I watch her voice soar high like a bird

Ducking beneath the occasional branch

To avoid certain injury.

She laughs

And so do I

We laugh at ourselves

And I remember quite slowly

As my skin begins to bloom

That I, myself

Was once in love too
