It started with a dedication"lost in admiration - happy birthday - I’m forever yours -blossom"faded red inside a tiny book of butterfliesI smiled surprised at how when flickered throughthe wings flew by spelled out my name...Six months went by the summer lostobsessively the letters dropped into my lifethe same soft blood smooth flowing hand"please try to understand - I have to see you - have to feel you-tell you all the ways I need you - yours forever in love... "strange attraction spreads it's wingsit varies but the smallest thingsyou never know how anything will changestrange attraction spreads it's wingsand alters but the smallest thingsyou never know how anything will fadethe year grew old incessantly she wrote to meshe'd started smoking poetry!I laughed in recognition of a favourite phraseshe'd pulled me in...I answered hera christmas card in sepiaarranging when and whereand how the two of us should meet...Her opening so well prepareda nervous smileI couldn't take my eyes from hershe whispered"can I use some of your lipstick?"it was perfect so believableI couldn't help but feel that it was realand kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms...Strange attraction spreads it's wingsit varies but the smallest thingsyou never know how anything will changestrange attraction spreads it's wingsand alters but the smallest thingsyou never know how anything will fadeso alone into the cold new year without another word from herI wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the springbut weeks went by with no reply until once more my birthdaycameand with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same..."I’m sorry - blame infatuation - blame imagination -I was sure you'd be the one but I was wrong -it seems reality destroys our dreams - I won't forget you -blossom"faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes...Strange attraction spreads it's wingsit varies but the smallest thingsyou never know how anything will changestrange attraction spreads it's wingsand alters but the smallest thingsand you never know...
