The Reunion Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

The Reunion



The closer we get to yesterday,
the farther away I feel

The longer you stay within my reach,
the more distant I become

Memory lane a withering dream
from a time the past has claimed

Trading those things I used to want
—for what tomorrow brings

(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: March,2021)
