My Reflection
As I sit here
surrounded by marble
cool stone hard beneath me
I reflect back...
I wonder
are you out there,
somewhere
thinking of me?
There were sweet days
in the winter snow
we stood hand in hand
and watched the water pass
beneath the white-arched bridge,
where our eyes first had met,
but those days have long past,
I was taken away
away from you
away from sipping hot cocoa
and warm hearth fires...
away from how your skin use to glow
when we would lie upon the couch
and you with that look
upon your face.
So now while I wait
for my train to roll in
I wonder---
ponder to myself
are you lying there
on that same beige couch
I always knew
thinking of me
too?
Do you
recall
that same day
where we met?
That seemed
like a lifetime ago,
now I must be taken
taken so far away.
I upon the cool still
floor, watching the train
roll in,
and when
with duffle bag in hand
I board,
look back once more
I reflect...
