You, again. | Literature 2022

talking to you again feels like reopening a favorite book that i have forgotten 

feels so familiar yet so foreign 

how many years has it been again? 

everything feels like it was yesterday 

but at the same time, a lifetime away 

i remember writing a dozen poems about you 

about your eyes and your lips and your embrace

i have dreamt of this moment for days and months and years 

but now that you are here i don't know what to say 

do we play the same game?

i feel scared; you look a little less tame 

i feel excited; like the moment before the rollercoaster drop 

i feel curious; i feel ready to take on your challenge

i feel poetic, here we go again, 

it's you, again.
