The Visit

I drove, you talked, I listened
In awe.
Side by side
But you a step ahead.
Understanding
What shouldn’t be, but could be
And now is.
Yet you smiled.

I talked, you listened, I silenced
In regret.
Side by side
But me a step behind.
Not understanding
Why it should be
What it is.

Yet you still smiled
And your eyes shone.
