Closer An evening and half a night, we talk about lust and love, desire, despair, pain. The bottles getting empty. Doublebedded we get closer. I kiss your balding grey head give comfort with my body. Tears well into your children's eyes when i call you my sweet kiddo.

schoolboy if only one day it could be the cutest schoolboy telling me after school and staying late sir, it's sciences i hate i can't tell a root from a square all that you teach about in there in my dreams i travel far discovering a newborn star i want to know all about space how constellations interlace he babbles on with shyish smile my heart stops beating for a while would you teach me after school i don't want to stay a fool anxious he awaits my voice so cute, so soft, i have no choice reality is harsh and cold he is young and i am old he leaves the building, muscles tense shouting in adolescence

hello he calls in the deep of night hello, this is me i cannot sleep were you? yes, i shiver i just went to bed what's up? and he tells his sorrow and hours later when he is fast asleep i turn around and around thinking of him
