Bijoux Dreaming

A man sitting in old style cinema watching old classics reflecting

Bijoux Dreaming

 

Sat alone in the near empty cinema

An old place out done by modern theaters

Avoiding the pomp and circumstance of technology

I return to the old Victorian styled red plush seats

Where we sat holding hands so long ago

Unable to adapt and move on as I should

The flickering old movie lights the silver screen

Robert Donat and Greer Garson

brighten the day

We watched this so often together my love

Our hearts melting as the sentimental movie

filled us with pathos

I knew then you were beyond me

Such beautiful creatures are not for

the mere mortal failings of ordinary men

such as I.

How many days I waited outside your flat

Soaked to the skin in the torrential rain

Unaware of anything else than the love in my

heart for you alone

My poet’s eyes filled with all the love I knew

You are of course gone from me now

My heart is still vacant a space that will remain

uninhabited for a very long time

I watch the cinema the endings are the same

Yet for a fleeting moment

I feel my hand slip into yours once more

Then all is well and the world is right for  a while.

I would not change one thing about us ever

I tried to catch the wind

And for a moment

I held it in my hands
