A few years from now

”Woman in the Bath”, Edgar Degas, 1886

I touched your hand
a few years from now
and it fades, as I do
in the age of my skin

I never understood
what I really knew
when I step through
a hesitant door and
wholly realize that
wanting you is more
than having another

oh that last line... it keeps pulling me back in to circle through the poem again
