comfortable_silences
belly fire it's good to have you to talk to since a silence between us is still comfortable but not necessary...
and that I never run out of things to talk about since we can talk about the same things over and over again...
it's good to know you remember all the things I'd like to forget since having you is like having memories...
and that those memories can't be all bad when we remember them together since almost anything can seem funny...
even pain
even anger
even bitterness
even loss
somehow I'll always be connected to you because you know my secrets
and it comforts me

bespeckled When our feet
in cotton socks
rub lightly against each other,
and all we need is a smile
to reassure each other
that we're still there.

birche boy i asked julie, "are you uncomfortable? is this weird?"

she looked at me and said, "no."

i looked back and said, "good neither was i. "

we laugh and drive back to school.

i can live with silences like these, but i keep talking whenever i'm with you, just to make sure that things don't become obviously awkward or uncomfortable.
