My Triniti

I remember all those years ago
when I first saw you
You came into that weird little office training room
and I recognized you
Only I didn't
But I had already been told so much about your soul
And it was a totally random place to
run into you
Since it was such an unknown little niche
Of a magazine sales group
I had no idea that you worked there
But the minute I saw you I knew
Our connections to each other
were completely obscure
Dane used to talk about what an amazing person you were
Then there was Oliver
We both had our run-in with the darker side of his nature
(Now of course, he is a much different
He gave up his ghosts long ago
He's married to another old friend
They also have three children
We don't have much to say to each other
though I still talk to her
A bit, now and then)
From that first moment, you and I were
constantly connected
By magic, by friendship,
by a higher calling
Neither of us truly understood back when
I remember the piece of petrified wood
You brought me back from a trip that you took
I remember talking forever about everything in the universe
I wish I could remember any of the words
Then you left
I was already heading into what would become my own darkness
You were headed to a life of making roots
And for over a decade I heard nothing from you
After many years of searching
I had already given up hope
A few months later you appeared out of smoke
Now what?
We never finished some kind of work
Not that anyone's work is ever done in their own lives
But you and I
We have a work to do that is unified
I'm just not clear yet
On how, what or why
The details will make sense over time
I'm just glad to have you back in my life
