An overwhelming sense of you
Flooded within me today
My head bent in remembering
My heart glazed over and quickly solidified
And I wandered the waterfront
In a coral colored twilight
Trying to regain a sense of myself.
With wild energies, with sureness,
But it carries these energies lightly
With an ignorance of gravity
And I remembered my heart
Before it bore the burden of years,
Or I wished for this memory.
Evening descended on the city
Lonely strands of lights lit here and there
And the shade of night slowly consumed
The glittering fabric of the lake.
Once in this same half-light
I held a dear friend by a thin hand, and slowly
We were swallowed up by the darkness.
