Fair Weather Love

A nonet

By Holly NacePublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

I am a moth among butterflies

You let your colors surround me

In the swarm of your family.

I thought I could be known…

But a breeze swept you

Away from me

Silly moth;

You are

Dust

The first day we met, you took my hand and you swept me off in the dance to music in your language and you said, “I got you.”

Lullaby
Lying on the floor, CDs are spread out around me. Some are in their cases, while others are bare. My music player softly pumps out melodies into the air.

Cold as ICE
I walked outside to warm weather and felt a wind chill. What met my eyes spun my brain like windmill. Hot feet were everywhere and it’s like no one could sit still.

"The music is too loud." "It is." "Why did we come to a bar?" "Why not?" "It's loud." "We can dance." "Nobody's dancing."
