So much time has elapsed, <br />So much has happened to me, <br />So much water has gone under the bridge, <br />And I don't think <br />I am still the same girl <br /> who once yearned, <br />Whose heart once ached… <br /> <br />So much time has elapsed, <br />So much has happened to me, <br />So much water has gone under the bridge, <br />And now when I think of you <br />I feel so ridiculous; you might as well be an axiom of choice <br />That in my cynical moments I scoff at <br />And in my sentimental moments I believe in… <br /> <br />Soon we shall meet. <br />We shall once again <br />Smile at each other, <br />Once again <br />Look into each other's eyes <br />But I shall not yearn, <br />I wouldn't be mad <br />And my heart will not ache…<br /><br />Jasbir Chatterjee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-axiom-of-choice/
