He Tells about His Life

BLOG NOVEL

The Other One — 67 He

You meet him at home
the partner is traveling
he seems relaxed and confident
that it is safe to be
secretly together
this day

You keep your arms around him
closes the eye
stand and enjoy this moment
when time has stopped
and the world out there
has taken a break

You sit on the couch
near him
in the corner of his arm
let him hold around you
lets the moment control the thought
lets the forehead rest lightly against the shoulder

Without words, on the couch
you and he lie still
in the soft light
breathes calmly
lie and feel on
being close

He starts talking
speaks softly
to you
about his life
the life he has lived
in recent years

Almost twenty years
in this relationship
with her
countless days and long years
when he has waited
that it should work out

He tells about his life
such as he has not told before
speaks in a low voice
a few words, then pauses
and new coherent words
episodes from lived life

He lacks respect
misses that she wants to be there
that she listens and is interested
lacks the ability to rest safely together
without having to pray
about being close
