remember when we felt so close?
the warmth that radiates from your home to mine
made us feel
as if we were one
remember when we laughed like the young?
the child within crept out to say hello
wanting to stay and never go.
remember when your heart owned mine?
or mine owned yours
but you and I
were never sure.
and maybe that was what love was
never knowing
who had won.
but maybe that’s what learning is
to give
to take
but together, we live.
