Drabble for Gayalondiel: Sussex Morning

Sussex Morning

I do not count them lost, the years when reticence and law and misunderstandings served as barriers to any chance of nights spent warm and languid in your arms. There are more kinds of love than this, and those we have shared always, despite wives and waterfalls and sojourns abroad in the service of our country. Two years apart, or three, or four, and still we end each other's sentences and know when to pass the wine without being asked. Yet I would count the years lost were we to part again, now we have come together.

Please, John. Stay.
