yes
i dare
say
loved you
loved
being with you
touching you touched by you
shared adventures misadventures
doubt
it if
you wish must
but
i felt knew
that deep connection
which you said
you also yearned for yearn for
so it’s not so much that the ship has sailed
as two ships
passing passed
in a misted night
