Us
Time- a measurement done in the labs at the University--
We two, young, immortal, vibrant felt no time.
Grasping each other tightly as the world spun in space
We floated into the future
You-me as one- reassuring who we were
You drifted into a world I never could know
I remained in that space familiar to me-
Now, we are not we but you and I
Without thoughts of immortality-
I in khakis lost in a desert stung by an unknown
Fall into the sand reaching for you
Can you hear me?
Do you remember me?
I have never left you
Bring me home and do not mourn
For our love is like that river moving to a greater place
Into a future time of you/me
