There is no crisis.

This came as a surprise.

The love song I wrote

for you all of those

years ago was just

now playing as upon

the silver screen

the credits were

rolling at the end of

the movie that I had

just watched.  It was

short film that had

ended in tragedy.  I’d

been crying in what

felt like a violent

fashion, but when

the music began,

I stopped silent,

sat briefly until I

recognized the

tune, then bolted

up out of my seat

and rushed out of

the cinema, and

ran with great speed

all the way back

to try to catch you

while you were

still home.
