HER
In the midst of a wet night,
discovered myself upon a viaduct,
straggled or vagrant, uncertain.
Not petrified by the dark, rumbling sky,
amazed to find the place familiar;
I perceived the faintest advancing steps.
On turning back, delighted with her presence,
the cold shivering breeze waved her black long hair, and
I insisted not to blink.......
Indeed it is a last encounter.
She ambled, at the fore of me now, only whispered,
I apologize greatly for keeping you without an answer for such a long time.
Involuntarily embracing her I expressed my gratitude,
Imparting her with the truth.
Conveying my farewell, plunged into the water.
Bewildred me, reincarnated, encountered my damp eyes.
