Before the poem, let me just take a moment to tell you guys how much I've missed you.  Work, school, kids, I've just been so busy lately, but you guys are always in the back of my mind and I wanted you to know that.

And there was this man
on the street,
standing next to this woman,
with one hand on her hip,
and the other one pulling her close,
like he had never had her this close before.
His face
was hid in her hair,
and this woman just laughed,
like the whole world was in on the joke,
as he softly whispered things,
I'm sure I've never had the heart to whisper before.
And I smiled,
because I'm happy to see lovers,
I want to see them everyday.
And the light turned,
and the shadows moved,
and this man on the street,
had this woman in his hands,
and I swear the woman he held was you.
