Deleted
I am on pause,
an unmanned navigation light,
blinking elsewhere. Seeking a woman
I loved before love became virtual.
She is still there
on a website for all lost
and deleted affairs.
In that vast starry universe
of nothing much, against all odds,
I find her at the edge of an old longing.
No way to download her now,
she passes fleetingly through
my stalled and static mind,
takes once more a none-stop trajectory
through my heart.
