Every Now and Then

Life has been a bummer

since you left back in March

Now it’s summer

 

As I recollect all the memories that we left in this city

I garner what I can

For what the future holds - is out of my hands

 

I remember your presence

I remember your presence so much

almost as if I could touch

your tender, flower-blooming, silky April hands

 

They say Spring is the season of Love

is the season of Growth

is the season of – hope.

 

But what if I don’t want it to play out like the tales they wrote?

I just want the intimacy and sincerity of you,

And that of which only you can bring -

 

So, here I am

On this day

Stuck in the burden of what some may say:

“yearning”

Missing you, sensing you, loving you...again

 

And hoping I’ll be able to feel your fluorescence

Every now and then.
