So it has come around again, yes

And hopeful heart springs reflexively

Spinning visions of what might yet be

If only this or that would change

So the perfect path to the perfect future

Could unfold perfectly

If he gets over her, if he

Remembers me, if we

Come together for long enough

In the right way, at the right time

Then, says hopeful heart,

Love might again find its way home.

Hope springs on skinny legs

While realism sees the space between

now and maybe, keeps my feet

On earth, eyes front
