&quot;There are limitations and there are protocols and I&rsquo;ve been warned that I&rsquo;m not supposed to threaten or beg for pieces of someone&rsquo;s soul.&quot;<br /> <br /> Richard Siken, &lsquo;The Long and Short of It<br /> <br /> &quot;My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality; just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean&quot; -unknown


We are
insult wars
and
words designed to hurt
but they never do

we are
late night conversations
where we fall asleep
before they're through

we are
thinly veiled innuendo's
and
fake marriage proposals

we are
tickle fights
hair pulling
I.D. Snatching
children

we are
smiles and laughter
during class
and
flirting
even when the teacher says
“quit”

we are
being picked up
& swung around
and stealing glasses
just to be an annoying p****

we are
tight hugs
and clasped hands
swung back and forth

we are
sitting on each other
and loud music
and random comments

we are
something that
she never expected

we are
something that
he created

we are
nothing but ourselves
