It has been years.
Since we last spoke. We spent time in the same place. We held each other.
Last night though, we were together in a dream. I still feel you with me.
Today I sit in a cafe and then there you are again. In the form of a song.
Yesterday on film. A couple in the final throes of their marriage. Tormented by the promise they made to each other.
I reneged on my promise to you.
Scars fade, but they never fully disappear. My skin still bears your touch.
I still carry your name.
Could I ever re-promise myself to another?
I think it’s still going to be a long long time.
