my teacher once told me to look
at the bus, at the train station, at elevators and stairs, at the convenience store around the corner;
that maybe i will find you there; that
you are actually nearer than i thought you are,
but i think she forgot to mention a few things:
because i found you, damn it i found you; in songs i never heard before, in languages i never used, in the oceans i never crossed, in days i thought i will never overcome.
