*In the back of the bottom drawer
Of the dresser by our bed
Is a box of odds and ends that I have always kept
But the man who sleeps beside me
Doesn't know it's even there?
Little pieces of my past
That I shouldn't have to share.*

Nagi slide down in front of the dresser by his and his
lovers bed, opening the bottom drawer he drew out a
small wooden box. And withdrew the contents within it,
picking each one up and caressing it lovingly, bringing up
the old memories that came with each item withdrawn from
the box.

*A napkin that is stained with time
Has a poem on it that didn't quite rhyme, but it made me cry
In a 'Dear John' letter from a different guy
He broke up with me and he told me I'm not always right
And a stolen key from an old hotel room door
In the back of the bottom drawer*

The \Dear Nagi\ letter from his ex-boyfriend, the
guy who told him, he was and could be wrong,
and a coffee stained napkin with his first love poem.
He picked up the key he stole from the hotel he and
his lover had stayed at when he first realized it was more
then just a slight crush on his part.

*I don't keep these things 'cause I'm longing to go back
I keep them because I want to stay right where I'm at
I'm reminded of my rights and wrongs
I don't want to mess this up
But I wouldn't know where I belong
Without this box of stuff*

He remembered why he kept this box and everything in it,
it wasn't because he wanted to go back and redo or relive
any of it, but so he could remind himself of who he was
back then and how far he'd come. So he could remember
his mistakes and his what never should have done, it was
to keep him from making the same or similar mistakes in
the future.

*A birthday card from my first boyfriend
He signed it 'I love you' so I gave in
Yeah, we went too far in his daddy's car
And those Mardi Gras beads from '98
We danced all night, stayed out so late
We thought we were stars, closing down the bars
That champagne was cheap but still I've got that cork
In the back of the bottom drawer*

He found the birthday card from his first boyfriend,
the one he gave his virginity to, he had thought he loved
the guy, but puppy love is not true love he found out later,
while he cried about their break-up with his best friend Omi.
Beads he got in New Orleans when Shuldich dragged him to
celebrate Mardi Gras, and the champagne cork from that night,
it was the night he got his first kiss, granted it was from a man
he\rquote d never met nor had ever seen again, but to him it meant something.

*I'm not trying to hide these things from the man I love today
But I'm a better man for him, thanks to my yesterdays*

His friend Omi had asked him once why he kept these things
from his lover, Nagi had just told his friend he wasn't hiding
anything, if his lover wanted to know or see them then his
lover was welcome to know about or see them. Nagi liked to
believe that the pieces of his past that he had in that little
wooden box made him a better person for his lover to know,
he smiled slightly as he started to put the items back in the box.

*So now I try to give more than I take
And I bite my tongue, fight the urge to say it's my way
Or no way at all
And now I cherish love a whole lot more
'Cause of what's
In the back of the bottom drawer*

After placing the box back in the drawer he heard his lover
knock on the bedroom door, he turned around and smiled, he
didn't know what he had done in his life to deserve his lover
but he was proud of whatever he did. His lover stuck his fiery
red head through the door, opening the door wider he crossed
his arms over his lean, well muscled chest and leaned into the
door-frame. Nagi got up from his place on the floor and wrapped
his arms around his lover, his sweet smile turning into a grin as
his lover unwrapped his arms from around himself and wrapped
them around Nagi instead. Nagi laid his head on his lovers shoulder
and closed his eyes softly as his lovers Violet eyes closed as well.
