two years, twenty minutes.

It had been two years since I last saw her.
and in the two years that had passed,
a lot had happened.

But tonight, her presence became my mirror.

and the reflection I saw
reminded me much of the man
I so wanted to be for her
the super kind of man
a spark of her thought
birthed from within me,
the days when we still played prince and princess.

...and even though, tonight, it was she
who now seemed more like the super woman,
and her touch didn't quite now
feel much like that of my estranged princess

yet, her mere presence
was enough to set me back on track...
in the fleeting twenty minutes we spent
walking up the curb.
