hope

Tonight there was this moment

as I talked with him on the phone

feet pulled up in my chair

a pose direct from my 16 year old self

skirt puddled high around my thighs

chatting for ages with my crush

that I was transported

He was sitting there beside me

all distance removed

as we shared our stories

and grew closer together

and I was reminded

of what I want

what I crave

what I need

through this taste

and hope was renewed

that I will

indeed 

find my man
