********************************
breath
fogs up glass
the way yours is
right now
your forehead
pressed against
the window
that could let you
out of this cage
he's not here
tonight
away on business
for a month
it's the second day
without him
and it's already
unbearable
the sash
goes up
softly so that the
servants don't hear
bare feet
on a windowsill
it's high enough
that you could
die from the fall
if you didn't die
from the medicine
they gave you after to
fix your hurts
teetering
a gentle breeze could
blow you off
is this what you want
he is kind enough
reminds you of
yourself
in too many ways to count
but that's not what
matters
what matters is that
love cannot be
forced
that is what you
believe in
so you close your eyes
and then you hear
a voice
from below
you're caught
but you haven't seen
this person before
a beautiful
face
staring up at you
"don't jump"
he gives reason
after reason
but in the end
it's his eyes
that make you
climb down
to the ground
a smile
passed between
two people
in the darkness
in the moonlight
"you won't tell?"
"it'll be our
secret"
a finger pressed
over pink lips
as he turns away
maybe that was when
you fell in love
or maybe when he
looked back
and smiled
"i would like
to see you again"
