Time distanced us
Time distanced us,
Time has made us bitter,
Yet it has made us wiser.
We've outgrown our impatience,
Youth, resilience. Our knees ache
From the distance we've covered
Over our bold years.
Time has defeated us, as it sits
With its sheepish youth
On our neighbors' fence, looking
Coyly at our wrinkles embedded
Deep around our eyes and mouths,
Trying to shut our childish memories
Out of our remembrance.
Time distanced us,
As im sitting next to your grave,
The memories, our memories,
Flood my mind, a picturesque
Cinema in front of my eyes,
I can see and feel your hand
Hovering over and covering mine.
