To the People I love/d



To the people I love/d
I wish you well, in light of summers past.
Where joy reigns in the freest plains
of time and space and understanding.

Where once, we'd meet, half and half
Across our oceans of today and tomorrow.
And as yesterdays, return us to our homes
beyond the shades of trees, oceans, and the plains

We looked back once, to see the other
remain as we collapse into ash, because rules are rules.
Live and let live, they said,
So live we shall, across plains, and oceans, and beneath the trees.

To the people I love/d
I wish you well, I wish you happiness.
I wish I could still walk to the shade of trees
But I'd rather stay in the shade of my home

(Where you will never find me)
