Poetry: It's been a long time

by Alex Fitzsimmon

Created on: January 26, 2010

It’s been a long time

Three decades and some

A torrent of rain swept you away

Yet the day has come

For us to be one


Teenagers mellow with age

Become middle aged adults

Or some say or ponder

Yet the day has come

For us to be one


To do things people do

When sparks fly

And true love becomes

Like a rapid lake

Reinvent the past


Taste me

Hold me

Show me


That time has aged

What grew from our heart

Long ago

Only this time

No one can tear us a part

We dance for life.
