..all they wanted was to hug

boy and girl hold hands on top of the world, their faces pressed to the sky
he tries to kiss her, but this big cloud is in between
she smiles and looks away wondering why he's hesitating
she did not see the cloud
he blushes
she holds his hand tighter to build up confidence
his grip responds
she's safe
then he lets go to pick a raindrop for her
she lets out a tear thinking he let go for good
she turns over to him to hold him
but the sun has just risen between them
it dries her tear and his raindrop
he turns to her empty handed and hides his hand in his pocket
she turns away
he turns away
boy and girl stand on top of the world, their backs facing eachother

Oh brilliant - men are from mars and women are from venus. And a lack of simple communication can cause such unintended consequences. There is no-one else writing on blog that I visit that makes me question, think, analyse more than yours does. And you always leave me with food for thought. Always! THANK YOU!
