It is not only the longing for love
It is the longing to be in love
It is the longing to be completely alive in desire
To want with all the poignant pain and pleasure one can bear
To be willing to give everything
Just to see and be with her again
It is the longing to love
And to be in love
To be young in it
And young with her again
A long longing
An old man's longing
A never -to-be realized longing
How we lived once
And truly lived once
And will never live that way again.
