Gravitation

- by Sapphic Roses

She was my friend

My sometimes lover

My comet

Always in view

Always in the distance

A reminder of the gravity holding me together

She was always there

In her own way

And I in mine

Drawn together by an unknown pull

Until one day

She was just

Gone

With distant radio signals

Whispering "you're the one that left"

"I'm right here," I shout

The emptiness echos back

She's gone

as we lay naked in each other’s arms for the first time in over a decade, i asked him outright: what did you think the chances were of this happening today?

he paused, frowned in thought, considering. “probably 20%?” he replied.

“only 20%?” i countered, incredulous. “i don’t believe that for a second.” i could tell by his face he didn’t either.

“okay, maybe closer to 50%.” he offered.

“yeah. that sounds right. 50/50 shot. but it was inevitable.”

he nodded. kissed me and let me play with his hair.

it felt like 2010 should have. it was the safest i’ve felt in months. my nervous system relaxed.

it was inevitable.
