back then, when we were

back then, when we were
lost, we looked into each other’s
faces for a sign,

an attempt at direction,
using smiles as our compass

every new moon

we slipped into summer’s

we slipped into summer’s
rain and felt the stars
align like lost
magnets, an unseen
but insistent
pull, tugging at
the hem of my
skirt, the gossamer
trim of our
patience, the come-
hitherness of
your shirttail

on the darker side,

on the darker side,
the side that fingers
static lovingly, treads
a bottomless ache
for your smile, attempts
day’s equations without
proof, there is a magnetic
pull
stronger than that
Allegretto, no,
perhaps stronger, you
must hear it too
