our shades mirrored tender moments
when we synchronized our electronic dance
a step forward
a step back
twirl together and arch back
that got us thinking of alternate realities
so we missed the arcades
laser visions by the bay
festivals and neon
a home on the drive
the Metrotown escapades
we missed the lectures in the ghostly halls
the bubbles at the rallies
heated passions
tantric sessions
those moments of youthful folly
when no sky limits wonder
or new legends in the fall.
it could've been a history
a new style with flair
cyberpunk counter culture
spiced with lysergic heat
frolicked free in strawberry fields
summer flowers in our hair
parallel lives entice and wink from afar
what could've been is now a sigh and torment
Our hearts at rest never at ease
bashful smiles and laughing stares
hide the bitter sweetness in the breeze
the leaves around us swaying
parting softly to reveal this mystery
swiftly!
profound!
aroused from its nuptial slumber
