Common Decency over love, or love.

I wrote that piece about an event that happened at a mates house warming party.

She was there…..the dream I was depending on….the knife slicing through the dark, that could rip it open and release the guilt and sin to start fresh.

I was giving her grief about her boyfriend/fiancée, and trying to suggest who she should be with instead. I was inebriated at the time so I really didn’t hold back as I would have if I was sober.
She started to cry, then ran. and I felt so damn bad so I chased after her.
We sat on the side walk while everyone else was loud and pumping the tunes of a good party.
she poured out why she was with her fiancée, and I listened.

We got closer, and we shared a moment.
An intimacy not achieved from sex.
But, now its all a bit unpredictable
Im left feeling a longing, and its her who has the power.

Out of this situation, someone is going to be left alone.
This might sound wrong, but I hope its not me, or her.....
