I Was Sorta Wondering

Let’s say

Five or ten years ago

You thought you saw me

Walking past a drugstore

Where you were picking up

A prescription for this or that

Would you hurry from the store

To see if it really were me?

Or, let’s say

A couple years ago

You were getting all comfy

In first class

And you thought you saw me

Scrunched down in coach

Would you set aside

Your white wine

And shuffle down the aisle

Into the Land of the Forlorn

To see if it really were me?

Or, let’s say

Just now

You were reading a goofy poem

That made you think of me

Would you skip to the credit

To scan for the author’s name

Hoping to see

That I really wrote that poem

Because I was thinking about you

Because I’ll always love you

Because you are the center of

The greatest joy of my life

And when you discovered

It really was me writing about you…

Well…

What would you do then?
