We Sat Together

We sat together, almost every morning having our breakfast and our coffee as the music played. Often, we drifted off mesmerized by its solitary beauty contemplating life's wonders and all the could have beens. It the words unspoken and well known the meanings lie within in awe of love and beauty uneasily conveyed. Did we go there? Had we made the trip to Italy and together let it reveal the magnificence beheld. You had been there once but I had never traveled cross the sea yet saw it clearly thru your eyes,its mystery kept safe in memory. In those pooled blue depths, I could see it still in your childlike innocence flowing like the rhyhm in the song. I should never go there now without you and alone, its call lived only with you to guide me. To sit together, just one more time would be a pleasure to endure in the quiet solitude of my heart's allure.
