Half an Imaginary Dialog (revised)


... And what she says in my head
And what she whispers in my heart is:


I love my children.
I love my relatives.
I love my husband.
I love my friends.
And I also love you too.
It isn't true that doctor's wives
Can't fall in love with you?
Don't you think we, doctor’s wives,
Might know a thing or two About matters of the human heart?
How it beats and how it feels and
how it longs for connection and for love?
I make sure of time for friends who love me.
And you love me!
Time for work and time for marriage,
time for children, time for husband,
And also time for you too.
I have time for you.


But I want to ask you something ... ...
.
Will you still have time for me
after I quit
And you don't have to see me anymore?
Because …Not seeing you on the books,
Not knowing when your coming to visit me?
And not having your company and friendship to look forward to?
Not having lunch and coffee with you at work anymore?
. I just don’t even want to think about that … …
Because I'm really going to miss you when we're gone?
What if you never come back to me again?
Please tell me.
Will you have time for me?
Will you? ...
Will you? ...
Will you?

Jaime

There's always time - even when apart.  This poem makes me think, Jaime.
