How could it be any different?
Beyond the superficial, we have not changed.
You are still with him, and I am still with me.
O, we had our time, our little loving streak.
And then it was done. So let's just sit awhile
Quietly in each other's company
As the fireflies rise, the valley cloaked in sunset,
The honed edge of the moon descending,
Bullfrogs chanting in the darkened pond.
Let's just sit awhile in the paradise of evening
Before we gather our hearts and go,
Other promises to keep.
