Commonly and casually
It happens the love
Smeared over two bodies in a bath
Soaps slip on and marry the limbs
Boiling pots moan in the kitchen
Cold tiles shiver with anticipation
(Hearing heavy heartbeats echo and repeat)
And he returns, bringing fog back from the sea
Unruly fireflies hide in the corridors
Lamps look for a shadow to hunt
(the window breathes, the clock continues)
And she returns with leaves to burn
Commonly and casually
The story begins.
