When in doubt,
I go back to 333031.
The love, the affection, unwavering,
After all this time, next to none.
I couldn’t help but revisit,
People who have shifted spaces.
But the respect showered, the attachment,
Mandate covering all places.
By the time I signed off,
I felt humbled, beyond words,
The humility, I now needed,
Some change was always on the cards.
The trio still goes strong,
Only on the periphery, changes occur.
On the inside, I get clarity,
On questions that recur.
I conclude, this space remains,
And the pursuit of love survives,
Beyond buildings and boundaries,
Beyond our ill-conceived notions of lives.
