A love play
Moving slow, hesitation, waiting for
someone to finish their lines
Awkward and staggered steps
Oblivious to all the ques
just looking to enjoy themselves
broken breathing, Nervous, Loud words
to mask the inexperience.
Finally starting to connect the dots,
and so ends the second act.
still looking to have some fun
Gaining clarity, excitement! Hopefulness
seeping out of every action.
fresh emotion and new relations.
both identical, Both looking in a mirror.
both having fun
Diving deeper, learning
to breathe without air
scared and frantic
not knowing what to do when it's all gone
Fun forgotten only a bad gut feeling
Paranoia, everyone is your rival, your enemy
jealously like a blanket blocking all other thoughts
suffocating trying to scrape the blankets away
needing air, needing to see what's there
now they're wondering was it worth it
Free, naked, everything's exposed
peace, everything's accepted
agony, will it come back again?
Love, what will come next?
the fun has changed into longing and needing
The thoughts rise again racing and racing
going so so fast
the driver pressing the gas
but the passengers just want to slow down
they know where they're headed
unscathed.... hardly unscathed
left beaten and bruised
taking advantage of and used
left to learn love's bittersweet irony
left alive to grow
they had no idea about the things they would uncover
they had no idea about the things they would learn
they had no idea what they were getting into
but in there moments of unrest
they triumphed in putting it all to rest
they left with love flowing through their veins
they left together at the end of the scene
they left together at the end of the play
they left in love and left love for others to play
