we couldn’t stay that way forever
it’s what I wanted
more than anything
but it would be asking
you
and me
to remain the same
and who could promise that?
we can’t get it back
too many things have happened
but we can go forth together
can’t we?
can we learn to love that way?
all these years
so close
and yet
i still feel the may air
i feel it more than the june air
or the october air
or january
i know we are infinite
the way i know your hands
and your face
and voice
in you i see me
in your eyes i see my
future
in your whispers i hear my
past
and in my heart
i feel my present
pumping away
