morning smiles
like the face
of a newborn child
innocent unknowing.
winter's end
promises
of a long lost friend.
speaks to me of comfort
but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place.
tangled up in your embrace
there's there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall.
but I fear
I have nothing to give.
wind in time
rapes the flower
trembling on the vine
and nothing yields to shelter
from above.
they say temptation will destroy our love.
the never ending hunger
but I fear
I have nothing to give
I have so much
to lose here in this lonely place
tangled up in our embrace
there's nothing I'd like better than
to fall
but I fear
I have nothing to give.
I have so much to lose.
I have nothing to give.
we have so much to lose...

Kit and Casey met again in college and because roommates. They dated for several months before Kit got restless. After college, neither saw the other for ten years. Stokely wrote a best-selling novel about the alien attack on the school and married Stan, an English professor at a university. Delilah moved to New York and became a columnist at a popular women's magazine. Zeke became a scientist and is now working at NASA. Gabe was last seen working at the Amoco station in Herrington.
Casey became a freelance photographer for large newspapers around the country. While in Memphis, he ran into Kit. She was working as a trolley operator to Mud Island. Casey applied for a regular job at the paper there in Memphis. They talk often, and Casey is working to get Kit a job in the mailroom. Neither are in a relationship with anyone else. They are taking one step at a time.
Fin.
Thank you.
