Acid kisses

"Live in the moment, revel in the now."

For you I try, for you I'd sway.
Now and again, you notice the cracks. 
There's a falter in my swing
- my true feelings peek

"What's wrong?" 
You ask. 
"I'd  soothe your aches." 
You vow. 

Can I speak from the heart? 
Do you truly want to know?
Will you scoff or empathise or would you call me confused?  Should I even try? 

I smile sweetly and shrug off my sadness

I've lived in both moments, I've worn the other shoe.

When I loose myself in you, my history with him shows a path

 - then both feet ache.
