A Year Ago Today

A year ago today
I so anxiously awaited
For a train to cease moving
For an open aisle clearing
My view added only stress
As trees obscured all things
As I began to walk I wondered
Had all this really happened?
The sun welcomed me warmly
and eased any further questions
Then I saw you sitting there
Wondering how this really happened
Brief was the sobering reflection
Warm smiles and pictures embraced me
Greetings from a world away
Already yearning for a longer stay
It was here our moment forever
One dream found us both
Conquered our doubt together
Liberated through childish hope
We set out for days unique to us
Days unlike our entire history
Balancing the moment with necessity
We drove north on a quiet trip
The beauty of Finland remains with me
Images of it content under shining sun
Peering through your window
The world felt big again.
Fine company offers comfort
There was no exception with yours
Sharing stories with different settings
Identifying new friends within hours
So much at a cottage is minimal
But never lacking sincerity
Honest time without distractions
Truly enjoyed whole heartedly
The days were to our benefit
Holding light long into night
Providing more moments for memories
Grateful for each and every one
Despite long days and horizon lit dark
Time continued by forcing our departure
Had it really been so brief
That already I stare behind me
Much quieter the return
For no one wanted to leave
Already destined for a train
Though this one leads away
We were hidden from the world
If only for a couple days
Now forced to realize
I was never meant to stay
Your touch was soft and warm
Holding a girl enthralled in dreams
Our hearts were never nearer
I don't know how you felt
Driving home that morning
I only hope joy remained
To keep your dreams ongoing
With my window toward the city
I whispered goodbye to your home
Slowly the train pushed away
And quickly felt alone
A year has passed already
Even dreams endure the seasons
Through Autumn, Winter, Spring
I think of you beyond reason
Still a world away
But not a year ago today
