Musings by The Poet Loriet
Bon Voyage
"Let's take it slow,
give things lots of
time and space,"
you said.
I know
how to interpret that.
It means
that my arms,
my love were
a huge mistake
and you don't know
how to tell me.
My heart is already
building walls.
I feel myself
taking ten steps back,
waving goodbye
from the airport window
as my hopes and dreams
fly away with you
on a one-way-ticket
to
anywhere-but-here.
It's been...real.
