Meeting Stella (M’selle Artois)

They had met before – A long time since-

Taking my hand – He kissed it-

I Love you – said His tears-

I Love you too – My tears replied.

 

Walking towards my warm and sun-filled room – I glanced back-

Stella sat – comfortable  – in white and gold – on a cold and damp pavement-

While He – Blissful – Re-acquainted with the taste of Her.
