I am here, and you are there
I am here, and this is a world
The world of the Renaissance
Art, architecture and Painting
A tradition of a family-owned
Now, by a city-state.

You are there and there and there
I shared your world
I was part of it and lived in it
As if mine forever
I’m not there, now
Yet there in my mind

Memories and what I have become.
The places I have been and have lived
All come to me in thoughts
In feelings, Sentiments, and sensibilities
I am there, and you are here with me
In my thoughts, carrying you to where
I am.

The different ways of living
You can’t be all at one
You need to learn the ways of this world
To feel at home and make others
Feel at home in your presence

The letting go of the ways and
Perceptions with which one had lived
As a youth, young adult and as someone
All of it, where does it go
In how many worlds can one
Be truly

Though there’s something that makes you
Feel it’s all yours and you are in it all.
Just be where you are
The way you are
And you are everywhere
No doubt.
There’s a then which is a now in the
Knowing you possess
Be happy
