Tuesday morning,
good morning
and wasn't sure
if I would even be up yet
but she was thinking about me
and asked me in an email:
-
"Are we still on for this evening?"

Tuesday Morning
in my mind
in my heart
in my soul & spirit
no switches have been clicked

Tuesday Afternoon
perhaps sometimes
to be spiritually closer
people must be
physically farther away

Tuesday Evening

WE are still ON
something like this
I am sorry but...
I cannot switch OFF

Tuesday Night
no way out
either:
continued
confusion,
contentment,
or resolution.

Either way
some sadness...

But be sure
(or pray)
the sadness
is overshadowed
by love
