Mangos And Raspberries

Across the table sat what I wanted

Each word that escaped matched everything I said.

I laugh out happiness and nothing less

While you laughed out loud, I lost a breath.

The words got heavier while the drinks got lighter

Till they were nothing but marks on that table

Though hands remained the same,

Touches weren't foreign.

You grab for me, I don't hesitate.

I take what I can get.
