In Conversation



Take a breath
Get out of this feeling
And find yourself, she rebuked him.


What if,
I find myself in you, he retorted


That's utterly blasphemous, my lad
I am quite older to you
Not just in years 
But with experience
And I cannot think or practice incest, she asserted.


I find beauty not just in your eyes
But in what you write, he pleaded.


My words maybe a reflection of my soul
But I cannot encourage your tender thoughts
Find someone of your age
And maintain respectful distance, she besieged
I am beyond your reach!
