Not a Circle Poem


They say time flows both ways.

What happens once can happen again.

Effects before and after.

Connecting back on itself.

But you make me believe that time is not not a circle,

Because this is totally different.

***

I never expected your kind touch.

The way that I do not have to guard myself.

How you handle me in a way you fear I might break.

A beauty in connection that is new to me.

A new heat.

A new light.

***

If I continue to experience new sensations like this, I know that life is not a circle.

There remains beauty I have never experienced.

Good hidden just out of sight.

Love a guidepost of the better.

And that makes living all the better.
