Part One — Magical Thinking
I don’t believe in an afterlife, per se
But, I want so much to believe in
Endless space and time
That through magical thinking
We met decades ago
You didn’t view me as
Too different
That you found me
Delightful and sexy and smart
That there is a universe where
Magical thinking happens
And the tears rolling down my face
So that I can barely type
Are because I have fond memories
Of a love that is somewhere
Out there
In between the folds
Of the universe
Part Two — Always Acceptance
A balance
Is
Magical thinking
Plus
Acceptance
Allow me please
My forays into the unreal
Because the real is tinged
With daily pain loss longing
Yet I have grown into a bifold of both
It is my pain and my
Brave mature acceptance
Not wishing to burden you with either
But letting you know
My life is
Balance
Acceptance
Pain
