The buses, and all that carries me
To your door step, to recite what
Must be said, to you my love.
With tears filling my eyes,
And my words large on my tongue
I gasp when our eyes first meet,
And I take your hands in mine.
“I know only this Kay,” my voice soft
“There’s nothing you can’t do, no one
You can’t love, not if you want it badly enough!”
The tears roll as you shelter me in your arms.
Kay do you feel that sudden itching on our backs?
As if wings were about to sprout there and send us
Spiraling toward the stars. Do you feel it Kay,
Freedom spiraling through us?
Anything we desire, anything we want, we can have.
It is all possible Kay. I gaze into your lovely face and you
Say it in the instant before our lips meet, with a passion
I have never known, “Anything,” you sing, “I can have anything.”
