It is midnight again
and I think of you
as I always do
on this day
sometimes memories
get entangled in fantasies
and I find myself back
on a perfect day
of you and me
togetherness that never really was
and love that couldn't be
and then I see your eyes
and I remember words I wrote
a million years ago
when I asked
will I some day be able to say
that the fact that I know you exist
make it all
bearable?
and now
in what feels like a new lifetime
I can still find the love
and on this one day
each year
I let myself
and I smile
because it is okay
and to my own question I can say;
absolutely...

Hi Josh, I don't mind that you are speaking frank. You see, fankly, it is a very personal poem, and the person it is written for probably understands every word, which is all I wanted to achieve. Basically, it is about a love that could never be, and I am quite okay with that now but once a year, on this person's birthday, I think of the memories and the love, and I answer the question: does the fact that you exist, make it bearable that we can't be together? And the answer is: ABSOLUTELY!
