On Being Alone

for S.E.

There is and was and never will be again,
the first:
               glimpse
               blush
               flutter  
               brush
               touch
               cuddle
               caress.

There is and was and never will be again,
the first:
               hope
               honor
               promise
               pledge
               solemn
               oath
               vow.

There is and was and never will be again,
the first:
               breath
               whisper
               word
               maxim:
               me
               you
               us.
