We lied to each other, there was no lasting passion beyond our first six months and even that was of the sneaking around variety. We were damaged people getting high off stolen kisses getting revenge on partners who were none the wiser. We carried our secret "love" like a seal of validation, it was good to feel so alive. But when we talk now we half-heartedly arrange a rendez-vous that one or the other of us will cancel. We hang on, with phone calls and promises of long, lazy afternoons, because it was so impossibly good when it began. I know the truth now, that it was not about you and me, it was about them and the things they wouldn't give us. It was fantastic while it lasted, but it's gone. |
