the future in the past

the pool is there. and our feet are in it.

i think it was hot now, i'm almost

positive that the night air had flushed

our cheeks and we'd stolen away to

the pool. our conversations were twisting

and twisted, secrets and desires and fears

littering the space between us, so i don't

know how we came to it, but you said you

might like girls, that you might be bi. maybe 

it was me who brought it up. maybe i 

uncomfortably let my heart drip into

the pool, maybe's and i mean i'm not sure really

i mean i am really into guys but i don't know

you took those words and formed them

into something real and tangible. now that's

what floated between us. everything else had

been the past, memories and tears, things we

told with a delicious fear that maybe we'd said

too much and then we could never speak of

them again. but this, this wasn't like that. it

was the future, it was your future, it was my future,

it was our future.
