SEEING YOU
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS

though it was
the best
of all
the places
we travelled

and though time
has sealed
the fissure
that opened
between us

I am afraid
to go
to bed
with you

it could be
like returning
to Athens
after
the earthquake
to find
the ruins
in ruins

Perhaps its just me, tonight,
but this felt like a light slap
on both sides of my face...

a kind of wake up call
to what could never be....
and if that was your intent?

Well done!
