"The Girl with the Goodbye Eyes"

by Erin Halfelven

She said goodbye with her eyes though she never said it with her 
voice. I knew she would not be with me forever, because of her goodbye
eyes.

"Hold me," she said. But her eyes said, "For a little while."

"Kiss me," she whispered. But her eyes said, "So you'll remember me 
when I'm gone."

"Love me," she said when we lay in bed together. But her eyes said, 
"Goodbye."

That faraway look, not looking through me or past me, but deep into 
me, deep into my own feelings about love and commitment, deep into 
where I keep my fear that every lover I have will eventually say 
goodbye.

"Do you love me?" I asked.

"Of course," she replied. "And you love me." This said after our 
greedy lovemaking in that sweet moment when it seems that one's lover 
has given up that last secret place.

"Hold me closer, hold me tight, hold me forever, just like this," she 
whispered. She looked at me, her lips opening for a deep kiss. But her
eyes said goodbye.

I held her and we kissed and we made love again. This time slowly and 
sweetly like the last dance after the band has gone home and the only 
music is a memory.

I tasted her breasts, warm and soft and sweet as honey on fresh bread 
after the sweaty meeting of flesh we had earlier enjoyed. I breathed 
in the scent of her; clean and wild like wind off the sea; dark and 
musky like animals that have never known about conventional lives. I 
thought about her while we made love; thought about her laughter and 
her loving, quick wit that made me laugh, too.

I played with her hair, dark as jet in the darkness of our lovers' 
bed, bright as sunlight in my memory. I teased with my fingertip 
around her little pearl, precious as no jewel could ever be. I traced 
with my tongue down the track my fingers made and left lip prints 
around the oasis of her navel. I said her name and she said mine.

I didn't look at her eyes.

I gently parted the curtains of her secret place and pleaded my case. 
I tasted the setting of that pearl, salty-sweet, sharp without 
bitterness, a taste so indefinably she. I kneaded the outside of her 
thighs with the palms of my hands. I heard her sighs and her gasps and
her cries. I smiled but I did not watch her eyes.

Afterwards, she lay spooned in my embrace. I twined my ankle like a 
vine around her calf; I did not want her to wake without my knowing. I
did not want her to leave without another glimpse of her goodbye eyes.

"Don't leave me," I whispered. Don't leave me alone with the memory of
your voice and your taste and the feel of your skin next to mine and 
the look in your goodbye eyes.

"I'll never," she lied.
