Was it casual?
Was it all just for fun
when we laid underneath the stars
and you admitted how my taste
wouldn’t be the worst that your mouth has lingered on
and how that possibilty isn’t so far
and was it really as casual
as our previous talks
had simply stated before
when you spilled out your guts and heart
and threatened to appear
hands full, at my door
how could you claim such a longing
as something so simple
so casual
when your hands wrapped around my neck
with a hunger so present
when your eyes lit up
casually of course, at my presence
but of course
you are not a poet
and you are not a dreamer
and you could not even fathom
the word linger
so your brain could only comprehend
one way to clasify us
along with your brain,
you called us simple
but truly, in your heart,
do you believe we were just casual?
