The Loneliness of Two

A tap on the back. A nudge on the shoulder.
A smile with no reason. A thought with no inhibitions.
A conversation easy to decipher. Another one too cryptic to ponder.

Laid on the field just like that.
Feasted by the cold summer wind of the night.

An invitation to go out. An intention not once questioned.
An opportunity to initiate. An analogy simple yet too rigid to take.
An idea blossomed. Another one turned to bubbles.

Laid on the field just like that.
Feasted by the cold night wind of the summer.

No one wants to make the first move.
No one wants to lose.
They both strategies to win.
But in the process they both lose.

One game. Two players. No winner.
