concealing

"concealing"

are hearts always pinched?

your terms, vocabulary, and body

are intricate

bits of intimate moments

and i know them well.

men do nothing but talk in your stories.

toy soldiers make for poor company

or so i've heard.

the mystery
was that we never trusted the author
but participated
in the

conflict.

note: Understanding where someone has been and where they're from is perhaps the most endearing concept two people can share be it relationally, physically, emotionally, or simply small talk tales of travels and experience. This briefly touches on that idea.
