Word of the day- GEZZELIG
Meaning- togetherness after a long separation
__________

It was a trick of time
when after all these years
I met you,
everything was as I left.
It was a trick of light
when I saw you,
you looked like a goddess
wrapped in silk.
It was a trick of hope
when I left,
I knew
there will be no “us”
to look forward to.
It was a trick of love
when I saw you that day
after four years
all the memories
and the rush
came flowing back.
Bones went shaky
Knees bent
Eyes locked
Mouth parted
kind of love.
When I looked at you
and laughed at your face
and left you at the altar,
I also left behind the hope
of getting back together.
But that day
on the side market in Cleveland
where we bumped into each other,
along us was that lost hope.
It was still intact,
it only needed me to come forward
and swipe it away,
so that’s what I did.
And, time was tricking us again
because it played our song
right at that moment
in that small cafe where we sat
and ate pancakes,
that song blared into our ears.
And we found bliss in this reunion.
