If only for a time
Happenstance relates two souls
Searching for peace
Wary of beginnings and endings

if only for a moment
We were together
Sharing Memories of our own
With no ending in sight

If only for a trifle
What is right or
True Is clear
By what expectations are met

If only for a distance traveled
Endings are clear or not clear
Conflicts create distance
Perhaps too far a destination

If for all time
Memories both good and bad
Are branded with their own space
I am better for having them

If on my last walk
Whenever that happens to be
That I hold a hand That cares
Where Forgiveness is given

Then my last quest is complete

Author's Note: Beginnings and endings, one never knows.
