I guess we all have
our memories, our past,
I threw out
every girl's number
I ever had, when I fell
in love,
and ten years later,
somebody finds me,
somebody always finds you,
and they write you,
email you, as if
the rain never got us wet,
but I am in love,
and they should know,
only fools
revisit.

Yes, as if the rain never got us wet....
ReplyDeleteonly fools revisit.
Quite a theme for a mid-life crisis.
Thanks for sharing this work, keep sending it out
It's pointless to revist past loves. Thanks for the lovely poem about that simple truth.
ReplyDeleteYou are right on with this. I, too, like the form and these lines:
ReplyDelete"...as if
the rain never got us wet,"
and
"only fools
revisit."
I love this - highly evocative yet apparently simple. I especially liked the lines, 'somebody finds me,/
ReplyDeletesomebody always finds you,'.
