HOLDING DOUGLAS
When I first saw you,
a shock of beauty...
and a look of something powerful.
You didn't want to hurt me you said...
And when I held you on the stage
I didn't want to let you go.
The embrace was full,
every part of us touching...
You very nearly clung to me
in that instant...
And my cock stirred...
And my heart followed...
And when we parted
and were reunited
I told you the truth
when I said I was there to see you,
and your honest smile
made not eating worthwhile.
Your confessions were welcomed,
Your smiling eyes were brimmed in distant sadness...
And when I was finally home
and could eat
and could sleep
I silently wished
I was still holding Douglas.
Only the next time I saw you
there were walls where none were expected...
Walls that crumbled only slightly with time...
but at least the smile reappeared...
And maybe those barriers will never dissipate...
But I've been inside of those walls...
And I can still remember
how you felt pressed against me.
Holding Douglas
was something to be treasured...
And so I shall.
