Bewildered I stood across the cross-paths,
ambling,gazing and deciphering night skies.
In the midst of chaos and calm,
a sudden flashback flickered down my spine.
A familiar gaze - a shift leading to metanoia,
It was her... ...
... there, half- lit by stuttering streetlamp,
enjoying morsels of food with languid smile.
My scant vision stared amidst all boisterous crowd -
befuddled, I stood, acting docile and ununderstood.
A sudden thought arose- "Should I proceed?"
Discarded, my dilapidated heart with rare insinuation,
reminding me of wretched days where
I endured in solace and stifled altogether.
Yet the reel unspools, relentless -
reminds me of the fine primitive days.
Days honky-dory and subtle niche,
and suddenly - a second, then forever apart.
The very last look we never named.
Ever again we never reconnected,
aloofing old ties altogether -
a regret, a resilience of not saying goodbye.
But a sanguine vow:
Next time, we'll finish the sentence.
