Because you kissed me

I  remember holding your hand.

A man told us off because you kissed me.

On the top deck of a  London bus.

Imagine that.

Before photocopiers,we copied ,by hand,

Articles from newspapers in South Africa House

About torture.

The guard never said a word.

Then you wrote an article.

If you did anything silly

And I asked you why

You said, it seemed a good idea

at the time.

Where are you?

I looked in the shed

I looked in the bed

I looked everywhere

but I can’t find you.

It’s not fun anymore.
