On our first date On our first dateHoney Shall we touch Kiss and walk hand in hand Along the river Seine Like lovers have For centuries? Or shall we Keep our distance Two meters At least And blow kisses Feign a hug or two Waiting for test results To prove each other safe? Shall we remain prudent Restrain the feelings The desires And the hunger Inspired by weeks of waiting Quarantined As we were In the same city On the same street Here But locked down And housebound Waving from one balcony To another? |
