We lingered over drinks, chatting about inconsequential topics. I like the Rangers,
You follow the Royals. I’m a Cowboys fan, you think I’m a fool. We laughed until
Tears traced meandering pathways down our cheeks. I claimed one lonely drop midway down
Your face, but you didn’t reciprocate. Maybe I mistook this connection. Maybe you aren’t
Invested as I am. Tell me I’m beautiful and I’ll forgive your lapse. Maybe I’ll believe you.

Last game of tag(s) before I hiatus and head for the hills to hide from the homestretch of this horrific election.
Along with free verse (tag) this a prose poem and bunch the text and allow it to run on befittingly
for example:

Regards always,

Yep. That would work well for this. As usual I had no idea where it was going when I started writing it.
