1/24/09
i've been pretending
and the charade is almost over
you are leaving and i can relapse
too much laughter, not enough talk
a friendship built on wisps of silk
and butterfly gauze,
fairy forts and make-believe
too insubstantial to last
in the real world
and now, this is the real world
but you, with you i've been real
because you welcomed reality
you are staying in my heart and my town
enough talk, enough laughter
a sturdy structure, a pavilion with columns
and flowers and butterfly gauze,
adventures and life
reality and exploration
with you, this is permanent
