nostalgic for elation
bursting balloons wrapped in a rainbow
splashed by the waves of my daily walks
arms extended, my lair, prancing along
my shadow, secured away, awaiting a return
in and out of the Town Square, stores and cafes
still in high heels, my frolicking spirit
all senses, honed by the keenest of eyes
with a soaring want for a final reunion

to class
thrice a week
the same campus building on the right
every day
the same young couple
the same corner
embraced in a hug of love
a goodbye
temporary separation
can’t help but look
though in haste
giving out a faint smile
in fear of “an intruder!” shout
a tender moment of privacy, after all
my head turns away
against the wish of the heart
the smile
grows inside
bitter-sweet
nevertheless
a welcome vision
first love
forever lost
