Dream Interrupted

August 6, 2013PoetryTerah Van Dusen

I am
weak for you
strong for you
I long for you,
                     still
I repressed you
You depressed me
when you left me
h
ang
       ing
I saw us
hand in hand
step by step
one heart
one fresh beginning
mingling with time
Songs and wine
Sundresses and vacations
to the midwest, the south
I saw fire in us
a future,
complete
but there was
nothing
     to see
           there
                                      …but me
