Reverence – Freeverse
It was 11.12 AM
when you shook my hands
and Cupid struck only me.
It was always 11.12 AM
when you spoke
in your marshmallow voice.
I had begun to revere
all the 11.12 AMs of my life,
yet I couldn’t dive deep
into the bowels of time
to find one moment
where you had revered
the magic between us.
I thought that that quirky feeling
would last only for four months.
But here I am,
two Octobers later,
still kneeling to memories of you
in utter reverence.
Perhaps, if everything had happened
at 11.11 AM, would you have
returned my love?
