Just about the time there is some semblance of normalcy,
The thought of you comes whimpering back to mind.
Our first conversations
Our first meeting
Our first touches.
It's a bittersweet moment.
You're with me again
but
you're
not.
*
Just when life seems to be on an even keel,
The thought of you comes floating back to mind.
Our laughs
Our common interests
Our time together.
It's a moving moment.
I feel you back with me
but
you're
not.
*
Just when life without you seems possible,
The thought of you comes rushing back to mind.
Like a movie in fast motion,
Our times flood by.
It's a touching moment.
These thoughts of you are
meaningful,
poignant,
sustaining.
You may not be with me.
but
you
are.
