283. A Story Part I

This is a story
A story of me ...
and you
It started some time ago
By chance perhaps;
Some ironic twist of fate,
Causing our worlds to collide
I wasn't ready ... were you?
Quickly the plot thickened
Sending us places I least expected
Each moment warrants a page
of its own
With its own flavour and style
Each day is a new thrill
Sometimes bad,
more often good
It seems as more of the
story is told
More questions arise
More confusion reigns.
How far into the story
Must we be before some
clarification happens?

282. Down to the Bone

Down to the bone
It pierces and hurts -
like no pain before
I don't know what to expect
Initially it was excruciating
But then it felt so good
It became an addiction
I couldn't stop
My only goal was to go
deeper each time
And each time it hurt
more than before
But each time made me
crave it more
Down to the bone
I went
digging and scraping
further and further
Till it penetrated and I
could do no more
but watch.
