Years After

I Walk into the Room and sense your presence
Then I spot you and seeing you sends a tidal wave of emotion almost a tsumini
Colors of anger sadness and glee fill my mind in burst of silence
And as the night moves on questions boil to the surface
The who’s what’s and whys swarming the room but none reach us
We stare into oblivion looking at everyone but each other
Although you are the only thing on my mind
Drifting about, we are aware
But completely unresponsive to the emotional tie between us
Connecting us to the shared memories of the past our hopes and dreams of tomorrow
We both wonder about each other lives
How we live how we’ve changed
Why have we changed?
Then we make eye contact
my heart races
we exchange Hi's
the tie is broken
and I leave thinking of you and the best years of our lives
