A winter wind soothing aches long held
Pains fade in the embrace
Soft words give way
To wine red embraces
Wild, not with the folly of youth
Instead of the knowing
Of self
And each other
Tears
Confident
Wild
Bear down the trials
Gravity’s inevitability
When freed from the hazard
Of expectation
Of what is supposed to be
We may dance
Choose
And choose again
