Another Place in Time

I look up -

your eyes meet mine

why

could we not have met

in another place in time?

A time when I was

younger then,

and lived alone in the world of men.

I feel how it could have been,

what mysteries we could have seen

and

the places we could have gone

and 

the things we could have done.

Oh to have laughed with the moon

and

run with the sun

sixteen was lots of fun.

But

now its too late -

time has closed the gate.

I must move on - and you

..you are gone.
