For Jason
In a better world
I could hold your hand
he said to me
that day on the beach
I smiled
not knowing what to say
I felt my heart
swell with pride at the thought
But in my inner world
your hand was already in mine
as we walked through the sand
our fingers interlocked
like an inextricable puzzle
And in a better world
I would have
pressed your body
so close to mine
and kissed you
deeply
passionately
fearlessly
