Dance #15: The Very Thought of You
I happened to think of you today,
for the first time in a long time.
I remembered an earlier time
spending hours getting to know you,
crossing your years and mine
even across the continuum
it seemed, drawing closer
to you with each passing day
until I knew I wanted you with
everything that I am.
I had never met anyone like you,
and I'm am still carried away
by the thought of your presence
and grace and your voice
and words and...
You took me by storm
and off to that place of desire
and marriage and of wanting you
to be the one who kissed me goodbye
for the last time.
I was so sure.
And I had fallen so deeply in
love with you that
"The very thought of you
and I forget to do
the ordinary things
that I ought to do..."
which was to see
and to know that
you never once
loved me until it was
too late in the dance.
But I've let go of you
a thousand times over,
a thousand ways.
And this writing
tonight is to express
my closure in the smallest
of ways really,
and only because tonight I had
a very rare thought of you...
