The very second
we wake from them,
they can be so very, very
far away; the harder
we try to hold, the
cruelly quicker
seems their
escape...
The gulf left,
so unbridgeable,
so enormous,
so peculiar,
when only so brief
a moment ago it was
so close,
so familiar,
so a part of us.
Can a man truly
love a woman
and a place exactly
as much at just the
very same time?
Trying to find an answer
to that question is like
trying to remember a
dream upon waking...
Though I've discovered
there is just enough room
in this one man's chest for
at least eight broken hearts.
