Travel

There was such an earnestness in you
I couldn’t believe it
– I don’t know.
I’d said
– I would have to take you to every place I’ve ever been.
A vague answer
— Then take me.
I blinked then
– You mean tell you about it?
— No.
And you were very sure
— Take me.
I remembered then we usually talked
Talked about everything
But finally you pushed me to go
For us to go
A time to stop using words
What a delightfully intelligent creature you are
