A Poem of Sorts

I want a man like that
vulnerable

he cried up there on stage
honest.  exposed

I picture making love to him
he’d tremble

we’d fall asleep
facing each other

our foreheads touching
our noses touching

a sweet photograph
of those in love

history

No more like him
Quiet in the shadows
No more digging
to find a heart so small
