Were We Not?
54
Were we not?
Yes.
Though but a dream
We were.
We were
As lovers entwined
Never touching
Knowing all and nothing
Of each other
It is no indictment
No wrong
To know and want
Yet be friends only
And never lonely
As each the other has
Overlooking separate oceans
Separate lives
Separate loves
Yet joined somehow
Are we not?
If it were in me
To trade
One person for another
Having found you
Precious one
I would fly to you
To make my life in your shadow
Even without love or warmth
Perhaps with nothing
Except that once
We were
You could always send me away
You could always
Find our treasure
You could always ...
But whatever song we weave
My beloved friend
We were
We know
We were

Were we not? an enduring question about love that beckons affirmation of emotional well being. Bravo, nice take on togetherness and admiration.
