how were we there
at the same time?
And sometimes I wonder
what you look like now and how you wear your hair.
Sometimes I wonder
if you grew taller or if you still wore consignment shop clothes.
And all of a
sudden, there you were, just right in front of my human eyes.
I didn’t think
about you for years now and then you just reappear?
How should I feel?
What should I do? The thoughts in my mind are frozen in time.
Right now I feel
like crying, I can see your soul and mine dancing above all things.
I feel the tears
fill up my eyes, it’s almost rolling down my throat kind of cry.
I don’t know if
this is ok or normal, why do my eyes want to shut forever now?
Should I have said
hello to you and your friends at the market, full of laughs and sunshine?
While I stand in
the never ending grilled cheese line, between my love and my mother?
What was supposed
to happen? Why were we in the same room at the same time?
There are millions
of other humans and on this one very day your there.
I didn’t know if I
should get up and dance or run and hide in my turtle shell.
All I wanted to do
was stare at you, like the first time we ran in the rain with our clothes on before
dusk. Like the time we
made love on the railroad tracks and didn’t remember a thing.
Or the time we
made a fort in your living room and hung out there all day.
Nothing in the
World mattered besides you and I and our music.
Why can’t we go
back in time and figure out what was so rusty? Was in my lips?
Was it my
attitude? Why am I feeling this way today? Now all I want to do is cry.
The lemon drop tears
will roll off of my face until the next time we meet sir.
There is still a
door in my heart that is half open for you to come in and pour your love out.
I need something
about you still and I can’t quite put my finger on it, all I know is something
was there.
