_The Last Encounter_

“And I
 Am the arrow The dew that flies. Suicidal…”

– Sylvia Plath

You knew the stranger was always waiting outside,
 You knew he was never going to
leave; What did you want then? To go out and embrace him? Or to remain to yourself?
Were you afraid? Did you think it is too early or perhaps a bit late?

Did you look through the keyhole?
 Was it still an illusion? Did you try to restrain
yourself? Felt the tears welling up? Or were you tempted? Was it just as you had
expected? What did you see – in that last look at the mirror?

I never told you back then,
 But I knew you would meet him; You wouldn’t make him
wait: Not to defy, but to reconcile. Was it as you had imagined? Or like you had
always wanted? Was it all real or did you still pretend?
