A LOVE STORY

the revelation
 
they were lovers several years ago
when the world still had mystery
she had blue crystals in a field of snow
and a fire lay down beneath
she taught him all about human loving
and in the light of all his fails,
he decided to take some lessons again
memories came back when it rained
like when her first came into her restaurant
cause he wanted to dry for a while
she gave him coffee and free donuts
she never treated him like a child
she wanted someone to talk to
and he wanted a chance to listen
she told him stories till a quarter to 2
he rarely blink but often grinned
her sense of humor made the time fly
she wore the scars on her heart well
he asked if he could stay the night
when she said yes he was scared as hell
he was in love but she wasn't sure
he was too young and restless to count on
he had to admit he had more to learn
so he bought a rig and headed for the sun
now he's come back to check on the flame
is it still warm or has it waned
he bowed his head and spoke in tongues
a deep voice and an accent she would know
he ordered in the lingo of restaurant land
but her heart gave away the show
she laughed with tears and he just smiled
she said its been so many years
they sat and talked for the longest while
over champagne and then some beers
it was hard for the to stay together then
but now love is a revelation
