Unattainable Love

Two decades passed in a fleeting wisp
Reuniting now, an unexpected twist
A cup of coffee, a chance to reminisce
With my ex, a chapter I once missed
Anticipation swirls like coffee's steam
Long-lost memories in a dreamlike gleam
Closure sought in each sip and word
As old wounds heal, like a singing bird
Yet in my heart, a longing stirs
For more than just coffee's comforting whirs
A chance to rewrite our history's tale
To mend what broke, to set sail
Perhaps in this moment, we'll find anew
A spark reigniting, a love once true
As we share stories of past and present
Hoping for a future, a love resplendent
I've explained these types of poems so much that I feel spent and don't even want to explain, but want to make sure I share everything that's been written. This is a good sign that my hard work in processing, understanding, and healing and closure is happening. For anyone who's not read the past blogs, it's an old flame that I've spent way too long waiting for, only to find out the connection I felt, was not a connection at all, and the hurt and pain that comes from knowing you've wasted two decades, stuck, and waiting for something that never existed.
