'
Once, so many years ago,
now a distant place and clime;
moments of thought and life shared,
each moved in perfect time.
Words in unison, hearts pulsed;
so intimate, each gesture,
each expression fears repulsed;
companions of great measure.
Now it seems we're worlds apart;
nothing more in common share.
The last desired thing to start,
fray last threads beyond repair.
Tomorrow bears no sunrise
with correspondent promise;
about oneself realise
quite the monster: surmise.
To let bygones be bygone,
this callow heart has not learnt;
perhaps hope had wily drawn
from past flames this quill has burnt.
