Déjà vu
There were a thousand faces
Two thousand eyes and half as many hearts
A dream of crowed places
Jumping sheep over fences
Puzzle pieces and glimpses of you
Red lips and brown eyes
That read me like a Pulitzer author
And, somehow I knew who
Beautiful déjà vu
Paragraphs and prayers
Written and spoken
Whispered and chosen carefully for your delight
Crumpled and ironed
Paper and confetti
Posted and ready for you to open
I twisted paper covering a straw
Corner booth at a restaurant
And, spoke words my brain already knew I had spoken
As the moment came unwoven
Came a moment so familiar
As I began to labor
If I had truly lived this before
In another restaurant corner
Beautiful déjà vu once again
If another lifetime has been lived
By myself or closest kin
Déjà vu, please show me who
Or how to live that life again
Paragraphs and prayers
Written and spoken
Whispered and chosen carefully for your delight
Crumpled and ironed
Paper and confetti
Posted and ready for you to open
