I often swop day for night so that I may spend time with you

It is a simple technique using a graduated neutral density filter

But you tell me that you feel uncomfortable with this science

As you feel you can be seen by anybody who cares to look

You come home shower and slip in beside me smelling sweet

I feel that you are seeing someone else but as we agreed we do not own each other

Football is my my great passion which you do not share

You watch me play but I know that you are bored

Even Space Women Remove Their Clothes is the title of a book you are writing

It is a collection of erotic short stories in the style of Anais Nin

You say that you are writing from experience but I do not believe you

As you are very modest and do not like to be seen naked by complete strangers

Apart from being a semi-professional footballer I am interested in camera techniques

Which is the reason I can create day to night with the simplest thought

It is quite cold today and our potatoes are frozen in the ground

So I am going to take you to a nice restaurant for a warming meal

Your name is Ina and my name is Tom and we were born on the same day

I moved to America when I was two and you spent your childhood days in Egypt

Both our fathers were noted engineers and were involved in the construction of bridges

We met at university and slept together on our first date in a hotel near the lake

You have a scar on your public bone after falling off of your bicycle near the bus station

Although it is not severe you are ashamed of it and try to keep in covered when we are on the beach

I have a number of scars on my legs which I do not care about at all as football is a contact sport

Your confidence about yourself is low and this is why I believe that you are intimate with your friends

Our parents have suggested marriage but we have not even become engaged

The whole idea appals us as we are although together we are separate people with differing ideas

Occasionally I buy you jewelry but you shun the idea of frequent gifts as pure decoration

That is the reason that I film and photograph you whenever I can as I obsessed with your quiet inner beauty
