Can't It Be? Poem by Keitumetse Mokhohlane

Can't it be?

Late night texts, on que
Calls on my line, no thoughts about it's due
Can't it be like before?
Before where everyone thought we were pasted in glue?
Can't it be?
Where I get excited to log in,
Knowing I'd find your message,
Not just one, but lots of them
Where you'd sing me a lullaby every night
Told me to trust unto God, as he's might
He'll be my light
Where we'd share verses every night,
Meditation upon the word,
Can't it?
Go to where our love was expressed through Christ
Were you'd pray for me,
Me while I'm praying for you...
Can't it just be like in the past?
