For Jason

In a better world

I could hold your hand

he said to me

that day on the beach

I smiled

not knowing what to say

I felt my heart

swell with pride at the thought

But in my inner world

your hand was already in mine

as we walked through the sand

our fingers interlocked

like an inextricable puzzle

And in a better world

I would have

pressed your body

so close to mine

and kissed you

deeply

passionately

fearlessly

22 March 1998
