just as it did many years ago

I brush crumbs to the floor
to make way for paper and pen,
wondering why
I'm left with the remains
of someone's late night sandwich
when all I want to do is

I waited for you with bated breath
In hopes that once again,
We could share that oneness
we knew when we were friends.

For years we sought each other.
And now we've had that hour

our moments?
The time for living is now!
