there have been two boys (two men, i suppose) that i have cared for. deeply.
two boys (men) who i think of.
though, not often.
not anymore at least.
but two nights ago i dreamt of one. and then today i thought i saw the other.
my mind must be sorting. figuring out where to place these two phantom figures.
and because the cup of the subconscious runneth over (so to speak), i (against my wishes) find myself thinking (consciously?) about both. with one i talk and argue and laugh and with the other we begin in silence.
and that silence is enough. always it is enough.
and so it goes. the two daydreams. the words and banter and laughter v. absolute quiet.
and the thing is, every time--every. single. time. the quiet wins. there is such peace, such love in a world where no words are needed.
