We are sitting on the same couch
But it's different this time
Remember the tension between us?
That scary thought of our bodies accidentally touching
We were sitting still for too long
Afraid of making a move
Stiff like stones
Yet burning inside
But now
The couch is still the same
It's us that changed
We're sipping tea
Listening to the October leafs landing outside
Our bodies gently touching
Without fear
At ease with our closeness
Full of love
