My You May 23, 2008

In Greece
Eating red watermelon slices
in a shaded glade
in summer
thinking of you.
In Luxor
Walking amongst proud ruins
on a crystal clear day
in winter
pining for you.
In London
Watching kids in the playground
on a chilly overcast day
in autumn
broken over you.
In Vancouver
Swinging on that hammock
on a cotton clouds day
in summer
dreaming of you
In Kheiran
Walking into the empty expanse
on a spiritually trying day
in spring
worrying about you
In Dubai
Reading a book you recommended
on a cool sunny day
in December
feeling closer to you.
In Maui
Waking from a nightmare crying
on a cool summer night
in August
fearing I had lost you.
In Paris
huddled in a booth
on a hot July afternoon
filled with joy for you.
In Salzburg
Lifted by music
on a stormy summer night
in August
connecting my spirit to you.
In London
Laughing with joy in the park
during an afternoon downpour
in summer
talking to you.
In Goteborg
Seeing but unfeeling
on long muggy days
in mid-summer
confused about you.
In Farwaniya
Overcome with fear
on a September morning
at the end of summer
bidding farewell to you.
Many days
many more places
waiting to be revisited
again.
