I miss our discussions
Our tales of Oedipus and Elektra
The deep dive
Past the boundaries
Into who we are
And who we’re afraid we could be
I miss the excitement
Of being afraid
And unafraid
The orange glow of adrenaline
Hitting my bloodstream
As I face the truth
You make me see
I miss doing things forbidden
Unbidden
Because we want to do them
Alone together
I miss it all
I want it
But to reach for it
Spoils what we both want more
