Reunion

You battle the warmth for a moment.
It?s a loud wall.
You?re shedding layers as gracefully as possible.
Not as gracefully as the rain.

Next comes the hugs.
The coffee house living room is
Busting with people you haven?t seen in ages.
It?s exactly like stepping back in time
To you.

You?ll probably be able to paint this picture in your mind
Ten years from now even
And that is an odd thought
Even for you
Even for this place.

You wish she was here
?cause she would drink up the warmth
Like a drum roll
And connect you more to the present.
You might even insert her into the memory later
As the layers of time fold over one another.

Smoke floats above you
In a fan shape
If only smoke could fan fire.
