Reunion

When bonds were freshly made
Before the internet
Another lover got between
The two as one, no longer seen
As one with much regret.

On Facebook after decades
Much older than before
She asked if she could be his friend–
Just one and one? Not two! Pretend?
They’re not friends anymore.

Centuries have faded.
The sand blows swiftly by.
They laugh at how they acted then.
Their dreaming seemed so futile when
They made each other cry.
