Some Things She Once Said

She once said that she lived
somewhere
near Gdansk, in a rented
apartment with
   her beautiful daughter ..
Surrounded
by surplus tall chimneys,
sparce bearded
scholars, artists and geeks ..
You know,
those who I guess may think
laterally,
kind of sideways and deeply ..
Proper textbook
   bohemia, or so I imagined ..
And just maybe,
the kind of place I might once
have felt quite
  happy to live in, so to speak ..
She went on to
suggest she had been hurt
once too often
and was now, taking a break
from reality and
tho' her ego may well be dying ..
She insisted she
still feels pain and can be hurt
just the same, so be
very gentle with me, she begged ..
Oh’ dear lord,
at that time, I then thought if we
ever did meet,
it would need to occur in a park,
or a public place
and at least, somewhere safe like
good old Ukraine ..
But even then, I doubt I could’ve
kept my hands off her ..
Instead, it was then, I fell for the
smile, her dark hair,
brown eyes and yes, much to
my surprise, her
   vulnerability and her honesty ..
Sometime later,
after we fucked and made love
a few times,
she found me on Facebook but
insisted I block her
for the sake of confidentiality
and the daughter,
she loved, more than anything
that this messed up
world of ours, cared to offer her ..
Yes, it was then we
shook hands and promised each
other to always be no
more than lovers and ever friends ..
