timelines
memories forged from a chance encounter
timelines that touched, yet two faulted seams
did she not radiate a joyous fanfare about her?
trysts flung on the decks of summer verandas
timelines that bled, yet in silent screams
did she not radiate the dance of a thousand candles?
in the south of Spain on a whim and a prayer
timelines that passed, yet drank from dreams
did she not radiate love to banish your despair?
