my first and probably only poem

Maybe, Someday.

It started in the cool winter night

Under the moon and stars

Surrounded by light.

Time stopped as the world spun

the center of the universe 

where the two became one.

But eventually, time moved on

as they fought against the clock

two against the world

refusing to stop.

they fell head first,

and like the spring rain they fell fast.

they got lost in the moment

creating the past,

but time caught up

and the heat did too

and soon the goodbyes came,

the small gap became huge

so they wandered off 

on their two different paths 

and just occasionally meandered

down a road into the past

they would sit and remember 

those few months long ago

and then they'd move on

and get on with the show

back to her house

her children 

and life

back to his home

his pets 

and his wife. 

and maybe, just maybe 

they'll meet again

and sit and drink coffee

side by side like two very old friends.
