radiant.

the smile you gave
slipped stealthily 
along the perimeter
of my (admittedly paltry)
defenses…
sneaking in
upon stockinged feet
to take up residence,
mousequiet and softly warm,
in a heart still wounded
from the last time

A well placed smile, a soft touch and a combination hair flip with a giggle can do that to you. ITs good to hold on to the moments even though they too pass and leave a little to be desired. Great, poignant and hard hitting piece wrapped in a fuzzy warm blanket. Geat work kit.
