skeptic

it was not supposed to be and then it was
and then it was marvellous or incredible
but you would say, perhaps,
it was just as long as it was now.

you helped me realize that you should only continue past the destination
when you can taste the wonders there
and this is where the magic is, and pizza.
you do what you do understanding the stark necessity:
sons, or marriage, or business proposals;
cocktail parties for god's sake
(and i say this in sensitivity).
i know i share a moment with you
and laughing created and space
through space
and if i read something that awes me;
see breathtaking;
you may know about it
or never, but the me that was you then,
with you then,
will then know.
