when they finally
sleep together
and they did this for years
and will continue doing so
for all the years to come
she finds him walking on a bridge
as the wild and unreasonable waters rage under
and then he jumps into the river
and he is gone and she wakes up
profusely sweating as though she too
is about to be taken
and
to know what is real from the unreal
she holds his hands
now more tightly than ever
