We were hectic, wild, playful. But there were too many there, and you answered my desire with a tickle. Later on, the silence of absent people stirred my shyness. I kept quiet of my thoughts. Anyway, the chance was gone. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This is an unfinished poem, and I can't think of a way to end it. It seems awkward to leave it as is, but I don't know what to do with it. I'd appreciate any ideas/suggestions anyone could provide. Thanks, Arwen
