Love Poem: The L Word

The L Word

Who would have known we would meet again
Fall back into the same place we left
So long ago
Moments and experiences separated us
Technology closed the gaps between us
And now here we are
Face to Face
If I reached out 
I could touch you
If you closed your eyes and opened them again
In front of you I would still be
I don’t know what to say
I don’t know what to think
Why would God bring you back to me?
Why would he make my past stare me in the eyes?
Images of how it use to be swirl in my head
The memories send warm chills down my vertebrae
You just watch the emotions dance on my face
Knowing that they mirror your own
What are the odds of you being in the same place as me?
Now
After all these months
After all these years
The questions are continuous
And it seems as if time has stopped
And everyone else has disappeared
Now it is time to face 
The emotion that brought us together in the first place?
