One Umbrella

Pont Neuf


     

It was night and raining

in a city known for lovers

under one umbrella

on a famous bridge

above a famous river

lights afloat on onyx

the rain upon your cheek

and in your hair

your heat against my own

in the ancient chilling breeze.


It was you and

it was me and

how could it ever last ?
