why you ask
and how do I say
what is new
is familiar
a memory
being created
anew
not deja vu
because I haven’t been
here before
but could have been
would have been
should have been
but turned a different corner
somewhere
long ago
and now
have stumbled upon
this road
quite by accident
and found you
patiently waiting
to ask why
I took so long
I am stuck…what is deja vu?
It’s that feeling you get when you think you’ve been somewhere or said something before. It’s uncanny.
To think that this has happened so many times in our lives! – but without your happy ending. A deeply thoughtful piece – well done.
Thank you. I appreciate that.
