Her present self turned around
To look back once again,
And saw him from the past
Looking back at her.
They saw each other again,
From different time frames,
But the understanding was profound-
She finally saw
That he didn’t want her to leave;
He finally realized
That she wanted him to hold her hand;
She finally understood
That he held onto her memories;
And he finally discovered
That she waited for him all along.
Staring at each other-
Her present and his past-
They smiled at each other
With tears streaming from their eyes
Both wondering:
Is it the right time?
As the past reached out to the present-
Are they finally allowed
To be together
And never let go
Even in the future?
