No Contact

It had been years.
Long years.

So I wont lie.
I swear,
in that final moment we shared:
I lived a thousand lives,
a hundred thousand,
a hundred, hundred thousand.

And there,
I knew all the faces and forms
of what our love could have been–
powerful love
whole love
infinite  love.

But the moment ended

And the path was set
where I would not see you,
nor know our love
in any other shape but
sorrow

-Cpontrella 2017

[…] Older children also learn crucial lessons through playing with younger ones. They gain a sense of their own maturity as they practice caring, protecting, and leading. ” – Peter Gray on Intergenerational Play
