A Pin Dropped by Trisha De Graciathere's a stilling of the world.
the place between raised step and urban street.
a hush amongst 6 billion simian sighs.
a tall cold glass on the sill in dead august moonlight
and careful starry silence painted through
and through it all
The universe has stopped it's beating
and everywhere a pulse has swished and stilled.
i don't love you
like i thought
i always would
and yet
... and yet
i could-
and still
i won't deny
I Love You. 05/10/2006 Author's Note: I thought I'd be in love forever. I couldn't picture that passionate infatuation stopping until it stopped cold. And now I don't love like that, I love in a smiling, knowing sort of way I think. Something more than friendly. Maybe friendly with a past and a different sort of intimacy. But the realization is amazing.
