Will You Think of Me?

Will you think of me
when the boat is in motion,
bound for Abidjan?
 
~~ ~~ ~~
 
Will you think of me
only during peaceful times
or in war as well?
 
~~ ~~ ~~
 
Will you think of me
as your vision fades away
and your teacup cracks?

    What bitter sweet writing this is where love may be compromised by events where each choose a different course of action.

    We want to know that someone is thinking of us, that we matter beyond our limited existence. Beautiful words.

    You always seem to say so much in just a few words. Nicely done.

    The cracked teapot beautifully captures the brokenness of a relationship changed by time and circumstance. I love it.

    Can love be expected to sustain when away, in good and bad times or when advanced in years later? Very thoughtful MMT! Nicely!
