Johannine Valentine

So we meet again after several lives
For lunch you've lost weight
Cheerful your courage still intact
Feeding on fish and rice and tea
To hear what's come of our fears
Your many moves across the country
The marvels and tragedies we've seen
And how the time has come for you
To move forward and me to fall back
For you to remember everything
And me to slowly forget
Making space for the new discovery
Of far-reaching death
Me waiting for you where we met
