Zoom to a Mistake
----------------------
Once,
I had confessed my love and
You deemed it quite hasty.
Yet, I knew you would turn around
But for my single mistake:
You had entered the shower
While I went to drop off
the Kazakasthani guy and his suitcases.
As I hurried back
Through shadows of summer trees
Fresh memory of your recent kiss -
My lips still ringing like ears ring
when someone shouts too near.
And from the doorpost I saw
You - fairest in red blouse -
Laying on my bed.
Were I granted a wish to alter our past
I would let that Moment endure,
Stop myself and let your pointed eyes cast
Magic. Stop at that door
And your red figure
Forever would I adore.
But I, in my haste,
Jumped on you
To effectively erase
Any chance of quick romance.
