Love I - 5. Curtains

The curtains flutter

and the shadows shift

just long enough

for me to see—

nothing,

nothing more than a glimpse

of another shadow.

Is it a tease?

Do you flutter the curtains

only enough so that I see

that there are curtains there?

Do you tempt me with the hint of illusion

like a catnip mouse,

knowing my love of mysteries

and my need to solve them?

Or do you sit behind them

hiding from me,

hiding from yourself,

curtains safe as a shield in front of you

until your sighing breath

disturbs them?
