Passing contact

It meant so much
Much more than intended
A passing touch
And I couldn’t stop staring
As she gracefully moved along the floor
I didn’t see the crowds around her

It brought me so much joy
That she picked me out
As if she knew I sought more
More than mere…

…Me
Alone walking away from destiny
I wait every day just to catch her face
Hoping for the chance I might see
The day when she’ll like…

… Me
As I walk alone down the road
My only load is my own

As I caper, alone; skip and jump.

This man isn’t me
He’s merely who I want to be
The hair so smooth
The air so graceful
Confident and strong

But this isn’t right this isn’t…
… Me
Alone watching this hypothetical couple
Seeing that it won’t happen
And the golems say
“Why are you grey on this wonderful day?”…

… Me
Staring as a LaVeyan angel makes me think
Am I seeking the wrong thing?
Drastic times
Drastic measures
She-wolves eat hapless adventurers
Even the cubs…

The pulse still hurts;
Madame Blonde left her sting.
None of it matters now…
. …Me
Alone in darkness
Wishing to see something
Anything that will bring happiness

No longer am I content with standard distraction
I need a vice…
…Me
Trying to figure out
How did the wasp get stung?

And as the golems watch on
My mythos dissolves before me…
