I know how we loved.
we loved harshly
The deafening crack of a branch
Steady in a summer stormwe loved gently
pale, pink, crushed velvet
the deafening crack of a branch
we kissed softly toopale, pink, crushed velvet
green leaves, soft ground
we kissed softly too
messy love, wandering handsgreen leaves, soft ground
we held each other firmly
red, scarlet. Missed mouths.
we held each other softlyWe held each other firmly
August and still
We held each other softly
I know how we loved
