Just For a Moment – Written Tuesday 30th April 2024 (Aged 49)

Just For a Moment

just for a moment –
we were young again….
but… just for a moment
one again –
i had your attention
but… just for a moment
our relationship,
since those hazy crazy days
never close,
yet somehow bonded
and always close
and just for a moment –
we were young again
pushing away the years
and the lives we had lived
caught in joint moments
as if we were exchanging gifts
somehow,
i owe a personal debt to you
despite all the hurt,
somehow i respect you,
despite how you sometimes worked
and… just for a moment…
or perhaps it was a few,
we were young again,
and you were the special person
that i once knew,
the person that frustrated me
but with whom i eagerly grew
