Somewhere in the wonder of meeting getting to know and like you A bond developed that changed us both. I don't remember how our talks came to be about us or how we learned to touch But in the course of our friendship, we did. Remember the day at the beach I took off my shoes and ran, happy, a little crazy from the sound of the waves. You stood and watched, wondering about me. I couldn't resist getting you just a little wet so I splashed you and knowing I may be drowned, ran with all my might. You caught me, grabbed my arm, jerked me to a halt. When I turned to face you, the hands and arms of my Friend became those of a lover. Kissing you, I pulled away then laughed at the serious look in your eyes but it overcame us and for awhile I pretended I was your lover and listened to the ocean pounding, pounding in my head.
