Alone again

She came

as promised

she called

as she stood

at the gate

inviting me

into her arms

I showed myself

but

from a distance

She signaled

an invitation

But I couldn’t go

She stood there

perplexed

unable to understand me

and my intentions

for my calling

and the failing

I waved her a bye

and left her

standing still

and now I am

all alone
