Missed Connection

[summer_jackel]

From today's 'missed connections'---

You were the shining one
your long golden hair streaming behind you,
full of mud and water and the rarefied essence
of life itself;
I was the one trailing behind you,
my world your scent and nothing else.
I felt something. Some chemistry,
the grace with which your lips pulled back from teeth on, maybe,
it was the seventh time I tried to get my forelegs
over your back. Something amazing.
I was the one who would be so
joyful to prance forever in your splendid shadow, I----
and then you were playing with another male,
and then you had to go. I was the one
who loved you;
I hope we see each other again.
